Staten Island, a bit of the outcast child of New York City, is just 25 minutes from the southern tip of Manhattan via the free ferry, Staten Island Ferry.
Good news for all shopping lovers. Empire Outlet on Staten Island will open in phases between April and summer. Nordstrom Rack - one of the mall's main anchors has assured that it will open its doors on July 4th.
Located next to the Staten Island St. George Ferry Terminal, Empire Outlet features more than 100 designer outlet retailers and a 1,250-space parking garage.
The outlet, which has suffered from construction delays, will see a significant number of retailers opening in April.
The rest of the outlet stores will open at various times between April and August and the majority of the complex will be ready for you by summer. An exact schedule is currently not available.
