If I could give 0 or -1 stars I would. Today (7/21/2017), my family and I went to Ford City Mall for the first time in over 10 years and had the by-far worst experience we have ever had at any mall. First, we entered through JC Pennys and then went to the mall section. It was very cold in there so my sister put her jacket and hood on. We were buying pretzels when all of a sudden an ugly lanky black european male "security guard" came up to us and told my sister to take her hood off. She did. My mother and I were paying for the pretzels so we didnt notice it. But , when she told us, we were outraged. My sister put it back on. My mother said she would get him if he bothered her again. A little while later he motioned for her to take her hood off and said "take your hood off". My mother told him to take his face off. His pale black face is the real threat as it represents years of torture and death to Brown people in America and around the entire earth in the past and present times. Anyway, he tried to say more but my mother told him "dont bother me". He said"okay" and then contacted the other "security guards" to bother us. The other 2 "security guards" had brown skin but had black personalities. The first one that bothered us was a fat brown-skinned female who said: "excuse me, take your hood off". We just ignored her and kept walking. We were on our way out and we planned to never come back even if it was the last mall on the planet. But she followed us! She kept saying "excuse me" and even said "is yall leaving?". I answered her stupid question in my mind by thinking: "Why would we stay in this cold place where the employees harass people over wearing hoods or hats to stay warm?". She even called another fat female that said "You cant wear hoods in the mall". We just kept walking and ignored both of them and their fat stupid selves. I wanted to tell them to take their fat off because they cant wear fat in the mall. I am outraged that we are told that we are innocent until proven guilty but we didnt even bother anyone, create a disturbance, or commit a crime at that mall and we got followed out of the mall like we did or would just because my sister had on a hood. We have the right to wear whatever we want wherever we want to because we arent in jail. Or are we? Those so called security guards were pretty much functioning like we were. I absolutely do not recommend going to Ford City Mall. It is the WORST mall I have EVER been to, and going there it has been the WORST experience of this summer. Notes: By Brown people I mean the people that are labeled as black or African. Brown people are not black. europeans should be called black because they fit the definition. Partial Google definition of black: (of a period of time or situation) characterized by tragic or disastrous events; causing despair or pessimism. full of anger or hatred. very evil or wicked. Partial Webster Dictionary definition of black: Bleached-up Washed-up pale

I havent been here in years. I went to Ford City mall to pick up shoes that were set aside for me from another Mall a few miles away. I walked in and it felt so weird. It seemed DEAD. I shop at Orland Park, Chicago Ridge and rare the time, I step into North Riverside. Those malls seems to be busy and have quite a bit of customers walking through the doors, but Ford City looked like a ghost town to me. I looked around a a few stores were closed and vacant. The stores that were there were off brand and cheap looking places with bedazzled shirts and bedazzled jeans and ridiculous clothing styles. I walked into a shoe store called "Call it Spring" in the middle of the mall and I just couldnt wait to pick up the shoes they had on hold and run out of there. There were security offices everywhere and someone lost their bad little kid who was kicking and hitting the poor security guy. This place is theeee definition of G.H.E.T.T.O.!

There are barely any store in this mall period. Upon leaving the mall I allowed my sixteen year old (a permit driver) to circle around a empty section of the parking lot. We were then approach by a white security officer that told us that we had to hurry up and leave the mall area. I havent been taking my business to this mall but its definitely the last time they will ever see me.

The mall is now easier on the eyes. Enjoyed walking around seeing whats new. I finally found a place with coffee thanks to security. Will not be eating at IHOP. Use to have good service but I have left this place without being served 3 out the last 4 times I have attempted to eat here. Other than IHOP I had a pleasant experience . Maybe Os will feel the coffee venue.

I used to love this mall until they made it so that teenagers cant wander around the mall without an adult. That is how they are losing business because all I see there is teenagers but now the place is empty there isnt that many people there anymore never crowded, But that can be a good thing too because you can always find the thing were looking for.

This mall has been here for a long time, and has changed alot over the years. It is not very crowded, and the mall seems to be in constant transition, with stores moving or closing. It does seem to keep a wide variety of stores from classics like Carsons and JCPennys to the slightly unusual, like a full service furniture store.

Absolutely NOTHING in this mall. Very ran down and hardly no selection at all. Very little stores. J.C. Pennys and Macys are okay but still nothing to really buy there either. I feel this mall should just close down because a lot of stores are shut down anyways. Poor food court and very raunchy.

Someone still the catalyst on my car, and I was parked by the security office, we reported and they dont care we asked them to check the cámaras and they dont want to do it. They just give me a business card for a catalyst shop. For sure they know who stole it. Never going back again

Bleak, but clean. Nice atrium in center. Several empty stores. Strong security guard presence due to past gang fights, shooting in parking lot and customer caused garbage and vandalism. It is now a slightly more pleasant shopping experience because it feels safer than it used to.

Renovated mall, still working on some details, but it feels different, more renowned stores and still a lot of empties, the transition feels strong! It was an outdated mall with empty locals and no known brands, now its renovated with more stores, its getting better!

This mall has been improving a lot over the years, yet it is not the best mall in town. It is good for a quick shopping trip but you wont find much variety. Prices in stores vary from reasonable to expensive. The mall is not always clean, but they do make an effort.

Awesome mall, so many shops...but SO crowded! Go during the weekdays and not at night or on the weekends. Too many people and a lot of manoeuvring. They have a good food court and the movie theatre is awesome (but plan ahead because the lines are LONG).
