The Oakwood Shopping Center is in Gretna, a quick drive over the Crescent City Connection, the bridge that takes you to the West Bank of the Mississippi. It's not as big as some of the other malls on this list, but that can be a blessing in disguise. The Oakwood Mall has plenty of parking and fewer crowds, making the shopping experience breezier. The big department stores here are Dillard's, Sears and JCPenney. Oakwood caters to footwear lovers, and they don't disappoint, with shoe stores like ALDO, Finish Line, Footlocker, Journeys and Footaction. For the ladies, stores like Forever 21 and New York & Company are popular. The food court has some desirable options to keep your hunger at bay, such as Chic-Fil-A and Cafe Du Monde.
