Located on the former Myrtle Beach Air Force Base, which closed in 1994, this new multi-purpose complex features great dining and entertainment options. But shopping is the top draw, and Market Common does an awesome impersonation of an urban retail district one would expect to find in a major city. With more than 50 shops on one city block, window shoppers can stroll through this retail district and check out such exclusive stores as Anthropologie, Fossil, Ivy & Leo, Orvis and many more. Upscale restaurants, a state-of-the-art theater and biking and jogging trails are part of the atmosphere at Market Common.
