$$ The Citadel Mall
750 Citadel Dr E, Colorado Springs, CO 80909
The largest enclosed mall on the east side — Dillard's, Macy's, JCPenney, plus a food court and a 14-screen movie theater. The classic American mall experience, alive and well.
A useful rainy-day or beat-the-altitude-headache option — air conditioning, food, and walking distance for an entire afternoon. The Cinemark 14 is a working 1990s-style mall theater that locals still go to.
Anchors are Dillard’s, JCPenney, Macy’s. About 15 minutes from downtown. Probably not the reason you came to COS, but a useful backstop.
