Reply to comment by objectimpermanence in Uniqlo is coming to the Newport mall - Apple should come as well by coliji

Newport Mall is surrounded by money. Newport itself is a wealthy area. Hamilton Park to the west. Hoboken to the north. Downtown JC to the south. The light rail makes it accessible to more working class neighborhoods. The PATH station being the intersection point between the lines to midtown and downtown manhattan makes it accessible to commuters.

Honestly I expect it to be one of the last malls to close in America. The location is too good and it will probably remain profitable for a long time.

The American Dream mall wishes it had such a juicy location. That place feels like a ghost town every time I've been there.

It's kind of a nightmare to walk to from any direction. Driving around here is bad.

Marin's the only difficult part. It's an easy walk otherwise.

It's not difficult in every direction, but it's not pleasant. Breaks most of the walkable city rules.
