The crown jewel in shopping center magnate Al Taubman's empire, Fairlane Town Center is a fashionable destination that lures more than 18 million customers a year. Built in the 1960s, it has been renovated several times to make the layout less confusing. Big department stores such as Lord & Taylor and Hudson's vie for space in this 1.4-million-square-foot megamall with small fashion emporia and name-brand chain retailers. Several tiers of stores ring a central court. Its proximity to Ford World Headquarters and downtown Detroit make the mall convenient for the traveler, and it attracts a diverse mix of shoppers.
