Always Creative spent the last three days touring the Shops of Riverwoods in Provo, Utah. We flew up there to experience the mall, all its shops, and to meet with a few people to discuss website needs. Here are a few teaser images to show you what it’s all about.

The Shops at Riverwoods:

The Shops at Riverwoods is an outdoor mall with quite an experience. They have cobblestone streets, an elevated stage, elegant heating stations, and plenty of great dining & shops.

Provo Beach Resort:

Provo Beach Resort is a two-story activities center in the mall. It is still under construction, but here are a few things you’ll find inside once it’s open: a stationery wave machine, 3-D golf simulators, a bowling alley, multiple playgrounds, a carousel, a t-shirt printing station, and plenty of food options.

Blickenstaff’s Toy Store:

Blickenstaff’s is a toy and candy store. With over 4,000 products, they have something for everyone. There is also a vintage candy section with items your grandparents would remember from their youth. And all the decorations in the store are for sale (airplanes hanging from the ceiling, vintage bicycles at the top of shelves, old gas pumps, etc.).

La Jolla Groves:

La Jolla Groves is a restaurant with a very unique experience. The dining room is filled with believably manufactured lemon trees. Lanterns hang from the branches and starlight shines down from above the trees. The ingredients are delivered fresh daily, the presentation is impressive, and the prices are far too affordable.

Malawi’s Pizza:

Malawi’s is an African-themed quick-serve pizzeria. You can pick from the menu or you can build your own. They make the pizza in front you, then placed it in a large brick oven. And for every pizza, pasta, and salad purchased, they donate a meal to a starving orphan in Malawi, Africa.

We also discussed websites for Called to Surf (a surf apparel store), The Manor (a reception center), and Zuso (the company that is working to franchise all these ideas).
