Following an extensive renovation, Memorial City has emerged as a shopping force to be reckoned with, and folks flood in regularly to check out the reconditioned shops and family-friendly perks. Besides browsing anchors JCPenney, Target, Dillard's, and Sears, visitors head to the busy food court with its double-height carousel, take their kids to an extensive soft-play area, and hit the ice at a new skating rink. Upholstered furniture peppers the mall, offering refuge to tired but supportive husbands and weary little ones.
