The NE Mall is of medium size, well-maintained, and offers plenty of parking space. It has a wide variety of stores, anchored by a Walmart Supercenter at one end and the newly opened Makamee College at the other. The C train stops at Marlborough station near the mall and cabs are usually available there or by Walmart for those wishing to head back home.
Ethnika is one of the mall's niche market shops selling African fashion - some handmade - as well as ebony wood carvings in the shape of animals, masks, and jewelry. I bought a rhinoceros, elephant, and toad carving (each around $45) made from one of Earth's oldest hardwoods; they were worth it due to their craftsmanship. There are also African masks for home decor or collecting on sale here with bold designs ranging from formal to casual attire; they have an extensive selection of women's summer footwear too!
The food court has several restaurants catering to different tastes including A&W (with Beyond Meat option & keto-friendly buns), New York Fries, Subway, Taco Bell plus Opa Dairy Queen (with ice cream cakes & soft serve), Christy's Chicken Damas etc., so there is something for both healthy eaters & not-so-healthy eaters alike - though unfortunately Smitty's has closed sinThe NE Mall is of medium size, well-maintained, and offers plenty of parking space.
