Atlantic Terminal Mall
In the 1950s, the land was to be the site of a domed baseball stadium proposed by then Brooklyn Dodgers owner Walter O'Malley. However, the plan fell through, and the Dodgers moved to Los Angeles in 1958.
Floors
Atlantic Terminal has five floors. The lower levels consist of the LIRR and New York City Subway stations (technically in the basement). Upper floors feature anchor stores like Bath & Body Works, Chuck E Cheese, DSW, Sephora, Uniqlo, and most notably Target. The store uses the urban Target layout and has two floors within the mall. It utilizes escalators, elevators and a shopping cart conveyor, design elements that are replicated at other urban locations in New York City and elsewhere. Target, along with the Chuck E Cheese and Buffalo Wild Wings in the mall are described as being the busiest locations for each company in the United States. Two Starbucks locations are sited on the property, one located inside Target while the other is in the ticket office area of the LIRR Atlantic Terminal.
Atlantic Center has 3 retail levels and 2 underground parking levels, with Stop and Shop and Old Navy on the first floor, Best Buy, Marshalls, and the New York State Department of Motor Vehicles on the second floor in addition to a few smaller retail outlets, and a Burlington Coat Factory and Dave & Busters on the third floor, in addition a music store owned by Afro-Uruguayan vocalist Jimmy Santos is also located in Atlantic Center.
