Its unique design boasts 40 local and national retailers, and a two-acre landscaped courtyard that is warmly referred to by community members as "the living room of Princeton." Anchored by local and family owned McCaffrey's Market, the center not only serves as a staple for goods, but is jointly used as a neighborhood events space. Partnering with local organizations, the center remains a vibrant meeting place for residents and visitors throughout the year.
