Fairlane Town Center

Fairlane Town Center is a super-regional shopping mall in the Detroit suburb of Dearborn, Michigan.

Following a major renovation in 2007, the mall features a large food court, full-service restaurants, several eateries, and merchandise for the urbanized market.

Additional features included an ice skating rink (on the ground floor), a 5 screen movie theater (on the second floor above the ice skating rink), as well as a unique Ford ACT elevated monorail car that shuttled shoppers between the mall and the nearby Hyatt Regency Hotel.

Lord & Taylor was added March 6, 1978, along with stores at Twelve Oaks and Lakeside malls,[3] and Saks Fifth Avenue opened in 1980.

[5] In the early 1980s, the ice skating rink was removed and the space was converted to a 5 screen movie theater, operated by United Artists.

The same year, Saks Fifth Avenue Off 5th closed its outlet store at the mall and was demolished in 2008 for a new wing featuring restaurants such as BRAVO!, Cucina Italiana, and P.F.

[11] In 2020, the mall, along with Stony Point Fashion Park in Richmond, Virginia, and The Shops at Willow Bend in Plano, Texas, got new ownership after Starwood defaulted on its loan.

The internal pedestrian network consists of two floors through most of the mall, and a third level designed into the middle of the center courts.

Access among the three retail levels is provided by a complex network of stairs, ramps, escalators, and two lighted "octa-lift" elevators each located in the center of the mall.
