Taubman Prestige Outlets Opening Friday in Chesterfield
The long-awaited retail development, located on the north side of Highway 40/I-64 at the Boone's Crossing exit, will open at 9:15 a.m.
After simmering for well over a year, the outlet mall battle in Chesterfield is about to begin in earnest with the opening of Taubman Prestige Outlets today.
Shoppers can began checking out the 47 stores spread across the 310,000-square-foot complex at 9:15 a.m. Taubman Prestige Outlets is located on the north side of Highway 40/I-64 at the Boone's Crossing exit.
A second outlet mall, St. Louis Premium Outlets, will open Aug. 22 and is located at the other end of the Valley on Chesterfield Airport Road, just south of the Daniel Boone Bridge.
The massive influx of retail shopping is occurring close to the anniversary of an event that nearly wiped out commercial development in the Valley entirely. July 31 marked the 20th anniversary of the Great Flood of 1993, and you can check out some first-hand accounts of the disaster here.
