Edens Plaza

Edens Plaza is a community shopping center in the town of Wilmette Illinois. It originally built by Carson Pririe Scott & Co. (Carson's) in 1956, and, until 2018, was anchored by one of their stores. It is located on a triangular parcel of land between the intersections of Lake Avenue, Skokie Boulevard and the Edens Expressway.
When it opened, Edens Plaza was regarded as being one of the Chicago area's first regional shopping centers. After years of stalled efforts, the shopping center underwent a major reconstruction in the mid-1990s.
Along with Harlem Irving Plaza and nearby Westfield Old Orchard (which both opened the same year as Edens Plaza), it is one of the Chicago area's oldest shopping malls.
