Arndale Centre
shopping centres in the United Kingdom and Australia
Arndale Centres were the first "American style" malls to be built in the United Kingdom. In total, 23 Arndales have been built in the United Kingdom, and three in Australia. The first opened in Jarrow, County Durham, in 1961, as a pedestrianised shopping area. Many had high rise tower blocks built on top of the mall.
The Arndale Property Trust was started in 1950 and closed in 2012.[1]
