Located on the west side of Gaslamp between 1st and 4th Avenues is one of San Diego’s premiere shopping centers.  The Horton Plaza Mall is a multi-level outdoor center anchored by Nordstrom and Macy’s.  It also boasts over 130 retail stores along with a food court, fine dining establishments, an ice-skating rink, the UA Horton Plaza 14 Movie Theatre and the Lyceum Theatre where “live” productions are shown on stage.
