Westfield Topanga is a shopping mall in the Canoga Park neighborhood of Los Angeles, California. It spans 2,100,000 square feet (200,000 m2) and houses anchor stores Macy's, Neiman Marcus, Nordstrom, and Target. 
== History ==
Opened February 10, 1964, Topanga Plaza was California's first enclosed shopping mall. The original anchors were May Company, Montgomery Ward, and The Broadway. A noteworthy feature was the "Rain Fountain" on the south end. It consisted of several circular arrays of vertical monofilament line stretching from the ceiling to a raised landscaped area on the floor. The effect of rain was created by droplets of recirculated glycerine slowly descending along the wetted lines.
One of the other highlights was the indoor ice skating rink, located in the basement on the southern section of the mall. As a result of injuries on the rink, the ice skating rink was closed in the late 1970s.
In April 1984, Nordstrom opened its doors as the mall's fourth anchor.
In 1992, the original developer May Centers, Inc., was renamed CenterMark Properties and was sold by parent company May Department Stores in 1993 to a consortium led by Westfield Holdings, Ltd., a predecessor of Westfield Group.
In 1993, the May Company store rebranded as Robinsons-May. Three years later, The Broadway closed. As a result of the closure, Sears moved in which relocated from its nearby Fallbrook Center mall.
In 2001, Montgomery Ward closed its doors as a result of the chain's liquidation.
In 2005, Nordstrom relocated on the Sears side of the mall. Alongside, the Wards store got demolished, replacing it with a two-story Target store, which opened a year later.
The NBC comedy Parks and Recreation filmed scenes at Westfield Topanga during an episode of the fourth season entitled "Pawnee Rangers."
In 2006, Robinsons-May rebranded as Macy's, as well as the opening of Target.
In 2008, Neiman Marcus opened its doors as its fifth anchor, which replaced the original Nordstrom store.
In late 2011, various shopping and food centers began to leave, such as The Disney Store, Reflection, First Cut, the Dodgers' Clubhouse, Kevin's Jewelers, So Relax, and Arden B. The Dodgers' Clubhouse was replaced with Cheesecake Factory in 2012.
On January 28, 2015, it was announced that Sears would be closing on May 3, 2015.
In September 2015, Westfield launched a major expansion of Westfield Topanga, called The Village at Westfield Topanga. The new open-air shopping destination is located along Topanga Canyon Boulevard, which is between Westfield Topanga and the largely-inactive Westfield Promenade.
On March 3rd, 2020, it was announced that Red Robin would close it's Westfield Topanga location on March 15th.
