The Grove is one of the most acclaimed retail and entertainment destinations in the United States. Many have studied The Grove in hopes of replicating its astounding success.  Today, it is one of the highest-grossing shopping centers in the country.  But at its core is an attention to neighborhood scale and detail, a passion for great design and a relentless focus on the customer and tenant experience.  It successfully fuses the dual ideas of high-end retail and community feel. Throughout the day, the dancing waters of The Grove’s fountain reach skyward, and people linger at the al fresco cafes and inviting storefronts. The Grove brought the glamour and magic back to the movies, by building a 14-screen art deco-influenced theater, staffed by ushers wearing classic pillbox hats. The Grove pulses with style, warmth and energy, which is why the world’s leading brands and personalities, everything from Vince and Topshop Topman to Diane Von Furstenberg and Barneys New York, come to The Grove to launch their latest creations. Underscoring the mall's personal touch, The Wall Street Journal has rated the Grove as having the best concierge in the country. 

Next door to the Grove is the world-renowned Original Farmers Market at Third and Fairfax. Opened in 1934, the landmark open-air marketplace features more than 100 locally owned produce stands, gourmet grocers, specialty shops, food stalls and sit-down restaurants. The Market also hosts numerous events throughout the year, including Mardi Gras, the Fall Festival and Christmas Festivities.
