Specialty Malls in Gwinnett County







Seen above the the Santa Fe Mall in Duluth, GA off of I-85 at the Exit between Steve Reynolds BLVD and Pleasant Hill Road. The mall is a specialty mall in that it caters exclusively to Hispanics. Walking through the mall is very interesting because the whole mall is set up to look and feel like your in a downtown market of a South American country. Notice the two pictures. All the colors and design features of this mall have a Latin "flavor." Everything in this mall is written in Spanish. It seemed that almost every person in this mall was Spanish.


The pictures seen below are of the Assi Plaza strip mall located in Duluth, GA off of the Old Peachtree Rd. exit. This area is very interesting in that everything is Korean. This outdoor strip mall has almost every store imaginable: bars, grocery store, bank, dentist, pharmacy, clothing stores, etc. This area was obviously built in response to the growing Asian population in the Gwinnett county area. This plaza was built in 2005.
