Ground was broken for Southdale in 1954, and a farm field was turned into an 800,000 square foot center with 5,200 parking spaces and 72 tenant spaces, according to a history compiled by the center.
“Southdale was the Dayton family’s retail vision of the future, and they understood that in the future, consumers would demand convenience and variety,” said a Southdale historical document.
Such thoughts aside, Southdale still ranks in the minds of many as one of the most important designs in American history because it served as the prototype for the regional malls that later proliferated across the country.
