Great video! In regards to your observations on the Tanger Outlets, casino goers are a nocturnal animal, so you would have noted more activity later in the day. (that's also why the virtual reality exhibits outside the mall weren't open yet, they get manned later in the day). But that said, the mall is definitely NOT what it used to be in terms of overall traffic. And I think it simply correlates to the overall health of the casino. Due to the after effects of the pandemic, along with the new casinos that opened in Springfield, MA and Boston, MA, Foxwoods is just a good deal less busy overall these days compared to 5+ years ago
Idk dude, from the signage it looks like some of these outlet stores have pretty great deals. I'm going to make a trip here this week after seeing this video. Thank you
Thank you for posting this video. I really enjoyed it. I have been going there for a very long time. I did notice a lot of stores closed in the mall that’s sad.
Great tour of the Mall, i have been to Foxwoods a couple of times but never knew there was a mall there... That waterfall streaming down almost makes you to try to get to the waterfall and just stand under there, like you were exploring some forest and found it... thanks to you and your Mom for taking us on this trek. 👍👍
Glad you enjoyed it. My favorite part was the waterfalls. I love indoor water features like that. The smell of the water is also great. It reminds me of my childhood for some reason.
Enjoyable video! The reason this outlet mall has 3 levels is because of the change of elevation between the Fox Tower casino and the Grand Pequot casino. There’s another connecting corridor between the two casinos that has a very long escalator to traverse that change of elevation.
Great variation of a mall/casino. I’m not a fan of gambling but if the mall benefits from traffic visiting for the casino and other events, then all good. Another example of an older mall/casino combo is down in Greensburg PA. A casino went into one of the anchor locations for the Westmoreland Mall. I haven’t been to that mall since the casino went in, I’m curious how that combo is doing.
Yeah, I'm not a fan of gambling either, but I could see myself going there for the food if I lived closer. Maybe I'll make my way down to PA sometime and check out those other locations. Thanks for watching!
I live right down the street lol the pandemic definitely played a part here many people shop online including myself who used to love shopping in store I’ve also noticed a decrease in traffic in many department stores as well Foxwoods does have beautiful resort coming in 2025 hopefully this can revive the outlets because Foxwoods is a beautiful place that many celebrities visit quite often
In terms of closed stores, I believe the only ones I could remember that did close down was North Face, Guess Who, and probably some other clothing stores I'm forgetting, but most of the empty lots in the mall have always been empty, like, no stores have ever been in those lots since the day they've opened, but there are some new stores that did open there, I believe Smash Avenue and that Escape Room are new, and also a new restaurant is opening there too, but besides that, not much has really been going on with that mall. But also as a fun fact, at Foxwoods, they are planning to open a Great Wolf Lodge sometime in 2025! So that's pretty cool I guess.
@@fleabittenadventures Yeah it's a water park, I've never been to one either, but I've heard there will be a lot more family entertainment added as well as the waterpark which I'm looking forward to.
I live in the area, and have been here a half dozen times. This is very much more modeled to be a competition to the Clinton Factory Outlets, an outdoor shopping plaza style of mall, rather than a competition to something like Crystal Mall in Waterford or Providence Place Mall. The foot traffic you're seeing, its very much the same kind of foot traffic I've seen whenever I've been there. I've always wondered, with this kind of foot traffic, or even if they had triple the amount, how the stores can afford to stay open. That said, I think Foxwoods charges them much less rent than the equivalent storefront in a traditional mall, as the mall is a secondary attraction, with the casino being the primary draw. Very similar to the small mall at Mohegan Sun. The structure of the mall is actually almost a V in shape, as it was built long after the existing two sides of the casino were built. They built it in the V shape out in front of the casino, elevated above ground so driving to the valet garages were possible, with foot approaches from the two sides of the casino. The "main" casino, where Guy Fieri's is, is a higher elevation than Fox Tower, where the video started. For your comment about Bath And Body Works proving it to be a mall, you might have a point there. Almost every storefront in this mall was a glass window and glass door, with the exception of a couple small places like Johnny Rockets. At 8:45, where the Hagen Dazs is, used to be a Pinkberry when Tanger first opened.
Mohegan has shopping but honestly it’s not a ton of stores. (I’ve seen stores close already) They are more known for Mohegan Sun Arena and obviously the casino. There’s stores there and a ton of restaurants, but I still prefer Foxwoods for the shopping.
Yes, when you are looking for malls in CT, Tanger Outlets at Foxwoods does come up, I was looking for malls other than this one, and it came right up. lol!
@@fleabittenadventures Westbrook is an outdoor outlet mall, just like Clinton Crossing, a few exits off I95 south of it. Both outlet centers are still there, but Westbrook, last few years is getting like a ghost town. Clinton gets more foot traffic. Neither of them are as busy as they were about 5 years ago, definitely different from 10 yrs ago. The only connection to the Foxwood’s casino and Westbrook is that they are both Tanger Outlets. Clinton is another entity. Mohegan Sun Casino is definitely a whole different thing…not a standard mall inside. They have a center promenade between the two sides of casino, also where you can go upstairs to enter the very nice hotel from indoors. It is two levels, as someone here said, but upstairs level is all various restaurants only and the hotel. Downstairs has mostly casino owned stores not national brands, more like little boutique stores. Just a few national brands, Sephora, Chicos, Le Crueset. Also many first class, various restaurants downstairs. Michael Jordan’s Steak House, Tuscany, Ballo and Tao are the best. Pricey, but excellent. They have some good more casual and average priced restaurants too. Mohegan Sun is a nice casino, hotel, arena, and still thriving with business. As for Foxwoods, I’ve only been to that mall during Christmas when we needed to get a few things at specific stores for some people, pre-pandemic. (I’m not a big mall shopper otherwise) It was always relatively less bustling than bigger, standard malls. At Christmas, with all the markdowns and sales, they were practically giving things away. Anyhoo, that’s my “2 cents” just fyi. Thanks for your videos!
Also Massachusetts legalized gambling, totally gutted foxwoods. It used to be slammed and every store was open. Now it's just kinda sad and alot of the casino stores are vacant.
Ground for this mall was supposed to break around September of 2012, but they broke ground about one year later, in 2013. So delayed the opening. I think they opened in may of 2015. There's a lot of nice stores in there, the mall closes earlier during the week. Has later hours on the weekend.
Foxwoods is an extremely interesting and controversial place to say the least. I wouldn’t be surprised if your video is mysteriously taken down for reasons that I’ll never be made clear. I spent five years working at that outlet mall in a time during my life that was very much in limbo. I grew up in nearby Rhode Island and would frequent Foxwoods for the occasional hotel party or gambling excursion, and was always tremendously curious about this place. It’s history by all accounts is very mysterious. This video had a almost hallucinogenic feel to it for me in the sense that I spent so much time just wandering throughout these hallways and huge empty Soulless Spaces wondering what I was doing with my life before I got out and moved to New York City to open my own business. I’ll always be fascinated about this place though. Side not. Foxwoods is so good at disguising it that there are huge chunks of this video where you are unknowingly walking by what used to be additional storefront space. Once you hit the casino, I would say there’s probably an estimated 15 to 20 former stores that used to be a long those walls. The way this place shape shifts is unlike any project I’ve ever seen. Believe it or not, there are several parts of the casino not shown in this video
At the end you are in the formerMGM Grand hotel and casino, opened in 2008. When they pulled out 5 years later, it was renamed The Fox Tower. Juniors restaurant is down at the end, they used to close at 10 pm, recently they close at 2pm. Juniors kiosk was a 24/7 operation, not anymore. Grand Effects was also a 24 hour operation, closes around 10pm now. The covid 19 really did a number on this casino property.
Hi, I agree with you the part of the mall that is painted white is plain its needs color, other than that I think it's a nice mall some are the stores like H and M and Bath and Body WORKS that looked really nice. Thanks 😊
The mall does look out of place in the middle of the casino. The casino looks brand new and very high end, but the mall looks like something out of the 90's. It's weird.
Not terribly usual in Vegas to have a shopping mall in the casino, usually at one of the entrances. In Vegas they tend to be mostly high end stores where few can afford the merchandise. As I walk through them, there seems to be few shoppers, but a guess a few sales a day pays the rent. Most casinos elsewhere usually tend to have food courts, and some retail, but not organized into a mall like Foxwoods. I have read where more malls need a casino to keep people coming, so here is an example of one. I tend to go to the casino, loose my budgeted amount of money and leave, in no mood to shop. Tanger Outlets is a national mall operator.
The last casino is the former MGM, when they had a franchise there, before moving over the line into Springfield. The two casinos were a much bigger deal, before it became so you couldn't swing a dead cat without hitting a gaming opportunity. The hotel is the former MGM, and is newer and nicer than the Foxwood properties.
as a semi adult now, Foxwoods used to be a place where all the rich people used to go. I remember as a child, it was a bit different as there was the festival buffet, handmade soaps at the mall, etc. Two-trees used to be popular, being an attachment to the resort but yeah no this place is starting to die unfortunately :(
When Foxwoods opened up it was packed. The slot games were better. I noticed they don’t used licensed slot machines anymore and that’s probably to cut cost on royalty fees.
Foxwoods had high hopes for this mall. They wanted to bring in more business, so they built it. They also had plans for an amusement park about 10 years ago or so. But that didnt work out.
I could live in that Merrell store! The mall itself looks much older, but I love the older architecture in these types of buildings. I’m not sure how I feel about a casino in a mall though. Feeling as though it takes away from the charm of the mall.
I’ve visited the mall several times in the years it’s been open and never found much to purchase. I’m short and no place in this mall had much to offer in my size. Also I love bargains and I found it very pricey. I wouldn’t miss it if it closed.
so there was a a store like a card trading but then it got close then the smash room got open at foxfoods this was like 5 years ago I been coming here like 8 years now
And by the way, The Scorpion Bar, High Rollers Club, and The Shrine, are owned by the same investors. I dont know if they own the Red Lantern, once known as The Shrine...
This mall has no worries it’s catered more to high end shoppers who frequent the casinos. Busy times Thursday night -Saturday. I find it a rather boring place myself
True, but some of the prices at the stores were crazy high. I'm guessing they were hoping you would win big at the slots and then not care about how expensive everything was.
I've worked there an lived in the are I can tell you thus place doesn't attract a big crowd but a small group of people that spend an ungodly amount of money.
If I remember correctly some of the places that are closed in your video open at night. It’s not really a mall per se,more like shopping outlet inside a Casino.
This outlet is slowly dieing it used to be booming with stores. It fell down when they got rid of lids and the good sneakers stores. Nike store is always busy and most of the stores in that section are busy but everything else there is dead quiet or empty
You wonder why in JANUARY 2023 less than ONE MONTH after Christmas why no one is spending? Maybe if you had showed up between Thanksgiving and Christmas the place would have been jumping? Unless they are giving the stuff away in January and weren't during the Christmas shopping season, this is about what I'd expect.
Probably my least favorite mall near me. Stores are really far apart and not many stores that I care to shop. The several times I've gone I've barely purchased anything. It's also not particularly interesting to walk through. It looks very sterile which you alluded to in your video. And for naming itself an Outlet mall, it's not very outlet pricing. Mohegan Sun's shopping area should have been a lesson for Foxwoods. Mohegan Sun's at least has interesting art as you walk through it and the retail area doesn't take up a lot of space. It used to have a really cool store with a massive aquarium. I was sad when that closed.
Why is it that every Tanger Outlet has a Ralph Lauren store in it. Is Ralph Lauren not able to sell their "high end" goods to snooty rich people that they have to sell it off in the outlet store to snooty poor people?
Not only is the casino almost dead those stores have two feet in the grave. My prognosis is that within 10 years it’ll be nothing but a memory up there, just like the dogs & Jai Alai. They blast the music to hush the silence😂 In closing, such a depressing place.
This was actually my first time at a casino. I have no interest in losing money gambling, but I would think that gambling would be a big draw no matter what.
@@fleabittenadventuresIf you ever do want to try gambling I would recommend Baccarat. It's brain dead simple to play and the casino only has an edge of about 1.5 percent. And only bring 10x your max bet.
mohegans does have a lot of shops. But its so well blended in it can be hard to notice.
Thank you great video and good explaining all this to us for sure!
Glad you enjoyed it!
thank you for my request! great watch as always!
Thanks for the idea! I had no idea it was there.
I worked at foxwood when it opened great memories, just the rainmaker casino and hall an bingo an cedars just opened when I started 🎉

Mohegan basically has a 2 story mall wedged in the middle, you should check it out
Will do. Thanks for the suggestion!

There's a video of a drunk guy climbing the waterfall at Mohegan Sun.

At Mohegan, there's a two story connector between the origibal; snd the newer part of the casino, a mix of shops and restaurants.
I been here it was so much fun the VR was crazy here

There was a big retro gaming store at one the ends that closed, near Johnny Rockets I recall...

Mohegans is definitely more about entertainment then shopping.
10 years already. I remember when it opened.
Answer at 6:40
Are they associated with the Tanger outlets in myrtle beach sc
Was there twice 2016, to 18
It's nice.
Yes, when you are looking for malls in CT, Tanger Outlets at Foxwoods does come up, I was looking for malls other than this one, and it came right up. lol!
I guess it depends where you are looking.
This outlet was originally in Westbrook and moved to Foxwoods
i just was at westbook snd it was sad walk it seeing almost nothing there i just wanted to check out the new pop culture store
Was it an indoor mall when it was in Westbrook?
Is there an indoor mall in Westbrook or is it an outdoor thing?
@@fleabittenadventures outdoor shopping like outlets

I think the downplay in costumer growth is due to the pandemic hitting us and everything shutting down and freaking out. 2018 this was was bustling
Without a doubt.
Also Massachusetts legalized gambling, totally gutted foxwoods. It used to be slammed and every store was open. Now it's just kinda sad and alot of the casino stores are vacant.
I live near Foxwoods. It always looks like that. It’s super expensive.
Being that the mall is in a gambling casino it's probably busier at a much later time of day than a normal mall.
Could be. I wonder if the stores are open 24/7? I should have checked. Does anyone know?
No, they close around 7pm or so

When Foxwoods opened up it was packed. The slot games were better. I noticed they don’t used licensed slot machines anymore and that’s probably to cut cost on royalty fees.
it matters what kind of day
True. I'm not sure what the best time of day would be though for a mall in a casino that's open 24/7. Thanks for watching.
Foxwoods had high hopes for this mall. They wanted to bring in more business, so they built it. They also had plans for an amusement park about 10 years ago or so. But that didnt work out.
High Rollers is a bowling alley. Not fancy at all. They do have a bar, so that guy was probably just checking ID's.

Armani/x was a store there like 6 years ago
The whole place is blah now. Feels too commercial. It was a magical place 15-20 years ago. Ditto for Mohegan. I rarely go any more.
I wouldn't classify it as a "mall".... It would just be like some small stores although they do have a Nike shoe store.
Sunday afternoons at a casino are less busy than Friday evenings and Saturdays
so there was a a store like a card trading but then it got close then the smash room got open at foxfoods this was like 5 years ago I been coming here like 8 years now
And by the way, The Scorpion Bar, High Rollers Club, and The Shrine, are owned by the same investors. I dont know if they own the Red Lantern, once known as The Shrine...

Jcrew used to be at this outlet.
The hidden gem is the little restaurant off the poker room; cheap, good, and notcrowded since few but the poker players go there.

@@kyle2beats I always called it "the poker room restaurant" There's only one restaurant, the rest being the poker room. Haven't been there in a while.
Not a dead mall was there last week was crazy busy
You could argue that H&M is an anchor because to me it looks like one of the biggest stores that you walked by in the mall
Only 1st floor 2rd up to tjmax and go calendar
Exactly. Thanks for watching!
This mall has no worries it’s catered more to high end shoppers who frequent the casinos. Busy times Thursday night -Saturday. I find it a rather boring place myself
High End? Who with money shops outlets🤦♂️Trust me nothing high end about this joint.
Nawh it’s just connected to one of the largest casinos in the U.S. and just 8 miles from Mohegan Sun. MS is better anyways
The prices were definitely high end, so I know what you mean!
True, but some of the prices at the stores were crazy high. I'm guessing they were hoping you would win big at the slots and then not care about how expensive everything was.

After you lose all your money gambling, you don't have any money left to spend at the mall. That place looks pretty massive.
Yeah, it's much bigger than I was expecting. I think they are hoping you will win a lot at the slots and blow it all at the mall.
@@fleabittenadventures But you are able to use your points at most stores.
You wonder why in JANUARY 2023 less than ONE MONTH after Christmas why no one is spending? Maybe if you had showed up between Thanksgiving and Christmas the place would have been jumping? Unless they are giving the stuff away in January and weren't during the Christmas shopping season, this is about what I'd expect.
I've been to this mall and one thing I noticed is the surprising amount of verified homosexuals

It like the shops at Windcreek Casino in Bethlehem, PA which is a definite dying mall, Casino malls are dying
Old Navy is gone now.
Probably my least favorite mall near me. Stores are really far apart and not many stores that I care to shop. The several times I've gone I've barely purchased anything. It's also not particularly interesting to walk through. It looks very sterile which you alluded to in your video. And for naming itself an Outlet mall, it's not very outlet pricing.
Mohegan Sun's shopping area should have been a lesson for Foxwoods. Mohegan Sun's at least has interesting art as you walk through it and the retail area doesn't take up a lot of space. It used to have a really cool store with a massive aquarium. I was sad when that closed.
Why is it that every Tanger Outlet has a Ralph Lauren store in it. Is Ralph Lauren not able to sell their "high end" goods to snooty rich people that they have to sell it off in the outlet store to snooty poor people?
Still better than Mohegan, which has practically nothing for shopping anymore.
These so called outlet stores are just a gimmick prices aren't lower than any other mall or online😊
Mohegan has shops, but it isn't a mall.
It’s an okay mall but slightly dead
Not only is the casino almost dead those stores have two feet in the grave. My prognosis is that within 10 years it’ll be nothing but a memory up there, just like the dogs & Jai Alai. They blast the music to hush the silence😂 In closing, such a depressing place.
This was actually my first time at a casino. I have no interest in losing money gambling, but I would think that gambling would be a big draw no matter what.
Didn’t look like it was dead when I was there last time
@@fleabittenadventuresIf you ever do want to try gambling I would recommend Baccarat. It's brain dead simple to play and the casino only has an edge of about 1.5 percent. And only bring 10x your max bet.
Keep on shopping Amazon and getting those vans delivering to the doorstep paying shipping. No wonder the population is overweight.
Factory outlets are not malls. SMH.
A mall by any other name is still a mall. Sorry.
Borderline dead mall, poorly designed mall, like walking a tunnel from one end to the other with no escape is how I look at this outlet mall.
