This is a list of all major department stores and major
shopping malls in San Francisco in California in North America, so
tourists that plan to visit San
Francisco or locals that currently work or live in San Francisco can
research what major department stores and major shopping malls exist
in San Francisco
before later visiting some or even all of them them to buy products
and/or services for their families and friends and themselves (and
as tourist souvenirs to
bring back home too). Major department stores tend to be a
single multi-story/floor shopping complex that is totally owned by a
single company like
Macy's and no other company occupies any retail space within (Macy's
department store in San Francisco's Union Square is a prime example
of that,
Macy's department store in San Francisco's Union Square might sell
many different brand-names of products/services but no outside
company rents
any retail space/storefront inside with the only exception being the
dining court which has various different restaurants), but major
shopping malls tend
to be a big building with many different retail spaces/storefronts
that are rented out to dozens or even hundreds of totally-different
stores vs. all of the
retail storefronts are owned by the same company (e.g. Westfield San
Francisco Centre actually is a shopping mall vs. department store
because it has many retail spaces/storefronts which are rented out
to totally-different companies that are totally-unrelated to each
other).
I created this website because it seems like nobody else on
the Internet currently makes a really definitive listing of major
department stores and major
shopping malls in San Francisco in California in North America, and
I thought that this website might fill a need or void that is
currently lacking on the
Internet. If you want to sue with me a major lawsuit for
mentioning your company in this website (or you want to sue me for
publicizing your company to
the entire population of San Francisco and the San Francisco Bay
Area -which is several million people total- so you have
greatly-increased website
visitors and greatly-increased customer traffic and
greatly-increased annual revenue and greatly-increased market share
while simultaneously expanding
into new geographical sales markets over time), have any comments or
questions about this website, want your company to be listed in this
website or
don't want your company to be listed in this website, think that
something else should be listed in this website, or have any anger
or grievances about this
website of any type at all, please contact me at
danny_chan_usa@live.com so I can IMMEDIATELY comply with all of your
demands vs. you
immediately sue me with a lawsuit.
People throughout San Francisco can use this website to shop
for school clothing/uniforms and school supplies for their children
to use on the first day of
school (or even buy a man's suit or woman's suit for college
graduation), buy work clothes for job interviews and work (e.g. a
man's suit with white dress
shirt and tie), buy wedding dresses for their weddings, buy Mother's
Day presents for their mother on Mother's Day and buy Father's Day
presents for
their father on Father's Day, buy Valentine's Day presents for their
girlfriend/boyfriend like a box of candy or a bouquet of
flowers or even a movie or
even a romantic candlelight dinner, buy a Thanksgiving feast for
their family to eat on Thanksgiving or buy a Christmas feast for
their family to eat on
Christmas, buy Christmas presents for their families and friends on
Christmas, buy brand-new clothing to celebrate the New Year with aka
January 1 of
each year, or even find out which major shopping malls and
department stores exist in San Francisco just so you can apply for a
job at some or even all
of them (as a cashier at a major department store or major shopping
mall, a hamburger cook or french fries cook at a major department
store or major
shopping mall, administrative office work like secretary or
receptionist at a major department store or major shopping mall or
manager or supervisor at a
major department store major shopping mall, or even security guard
at a major department store or major shopping mall).
Oh yeah, all major department stores and major shopping malls
in San Francisco have official websites along with official Facebook
pages and
official Instagram accounts and official Yelp accounts and so forth,
so if you really like a specific major department store or major
shopping mall in San Francisco
you might want to check out its official website to see if you can
join an Internet email mailing list to be notified about upcoming
sales events and check out its
official Facebook/etc. page just to find out if there's an online
e-club that you join so you can receive special offers or other
goodies that only members of the
Internet e-club can receive.
If you want to visit a certain major department store or
major shopping mall in San Francisco but you want to know what it
looks like before you
visit it, just use Google Street View to view it. Google
Street View lets you view pre-recorded videos of San Francisco in
real-time, for instance
Google Street View shows you the front side of Westfield San
Francisco Centre and you can then use your computer keyboard or
computer mouse
to travel from to travel all around Westfield San Francisco Centre
so you can see its front side and back side and right side and left
side or even
travel from Westfield San Francisco Centre to Macy's department
store in San Francisco's Union Square to view Macy's the exact same
way. To
understand what Google Street View is, just go to
http://www.google.com to type in "Google Street View" and "Google
Street View" tutorial, to
find a video-based tutorial about how to use Google Street
View...Google Street View shows the outside of Westfield San
Francisco Centre whereas
Google Business Photos and Indoor Google Maps and Google Maps
Business View show the inside of buildings, but most major
department stores
and major shopping malls in San Francisco don't use Google Business
Photos or Indoor Google Maps or Google Maps Business View so I won't
mention it. Also, if you want to visit a certain major
department store or major shopping mall in San Francisco, just call
511 at http://www.511.org,
http://www.511.org
shows you all possible travel routes from Point A to Point B, you
just enter Point A aka your home address and Point B aka the
business
address for any major department store or major shopping mall in San
Francisco, and http://www.511.org
immediately tells you about all bus routes and driving
routes that bring you there...also check out Google Maps at
http://maps.google.com to get a map of San Francisco or a
mini-map of very specific parts of San
Francisco that zooms in and zooms out.
This is a list of all major department stores and major
shopping malls in San Francisco, categorized according to
neighborhood/district of San Francisco
that they're in:
1. Major department stores and major shopping malls in
downtown San Francisco, San Francisco's Union Square, San
Francisco's Financial District,
and San Francisco's SOMA District:
a. Westfield San Francisco Centre at 865
Market Street and 4th/5th Streets is "the largest department store
on America's West Coast" (Westfield
San Francisco Centre is "the
largest department store on America's West Coast", but Macy's
department store's worldwide headquarters in
New York City is "the world's
largest department store" while simultaneously being North America's
largest department store, PLEASE NOTE
that Macy's
department store's worldwide headquarters in New York City is the
world's largest department store while simultaneously being
North America's
largest department store but it isn't North America's largest
shopping mall, North America's largest shopping mall currently is
Mall of America in Bloomington in
Minnesota in North America, to prove it check out
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Westfield_San_Francisco_Centre
and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Macy%27s
and
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_largest_shopping_malls_in_the_United_States,
the main difference between a major department store and a
major shopping mall is that a
major department store is only owned/occupied by a single company
aka Macy's department store but a major
shopping mall has many retail
spaces/storefronts which are rented out by dozens or even hundreds
of different companies none of which are
related to each other aka Mall of
America), http://www.westfield.com/sanfrancisco.
If you like Westfield San Francisco Centre and you want
to be notified about upcoming
sales events like a New Year sale or Mother's Day sale or
Christmastime sale, visit Westfield San Francisco
Centre's official Facebook page at
https://www.facebook.com/westfieldsanfranciscocentre
to get "instant Facebook notifications" (to get "instant
Facebook notifications" that are
sent to your Internet email address, go to Google to type in "how to
get instant Facebook notifications"...as a result,
everytime Westfield
San Francisco Centre's official Facebook page posts any type of
message at all, Facebook will immediately send you a Internet
email to tell you what it
is). If you want, you could actually join the official
Facebook pages for all major department stores and all major
shopping
malls in San Francisco to get
"instant Facebook notifications" from all of them, just so you'll be
alerted about upcoming sales events, that's because
you don't always get junk mail
sent to your house and the Sunday newspaper's aka San Francisco
Chronicle's newspapers ad inserts don't always
list everything.
If Nordstrom inside
Westfield San Francisco Centre is too expensive, check out Nordstrom
Rack at 901 Market and 5th Street.
http://www.nordstrom.com.
PLEASE
NOTE that I'm not saying that Macy's is better than Westfield San
Francisco Centre or that Westfield San Francisco Centre is better
than Macy's I'm
saying that both of them are equally good so you should visit both
of them all the time to buy the latest products and services
available.

and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tony%27s_Pizza_Napoletana
who owns Tony's
Pizza Napoletana at 1570 Stockton Street
and Union Street in San Francisco's North Beach at http://tonyspizzanapoletana.com
and
https://www.facebook.com/tonyspizza415
-Tony's flagship pizza restaurant is in San Francisco but Tony also

North America to win top honors aka
first place), to prove it check out
http://www.pizzatoday.com/industry-news/pizza-headlines/tony-gemignani-wins-best-pizza-italys-world-championships.
In short, starting in 2016 and

but is in America while specifically being at
1570 Stockton Street and Union Street in
San Francisco's North Beach. Tony Gemignani's
gold-medal-award-winning pizza which won
top awards in Parma in Italy in 4/2016
is named the "Don Giovanni" for his son and is built upon Tony's
signature seven grain dough with
Tony G 00 Flour, 5 Stagione Blue Flour,
Rosso and Soy Flour, central milling spelt, double sprouted grain
and semolina...Tony topped the

all over Italy including, wild boar prosciutto from San Gimignano,

don't need to visit Tony Gemignani's flagship pizza restaurant aka

Oh yeah, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tony_Gemignani
and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tony%27s_Pizza_Napoletana
say Tony
Gemignani is just 43 years old as of
2016 and he opened up his first restaurant of all time aka Tony's
Pizza Napoletana at 1570 Stockton
Street in San Francisco in July 2009 and
after Tony created his first restaurant in San Francisco in 2009 as
of 2016 he he currently owns
thirteen restaurants in Northern
California and Las Vegas, if you never heard of Tony's Pizza
Napoletana at 1570 Stockton Street in
San Francisco it's because it only

2016. If you want to know what
1570 Stockton Street in San Francisco
looks like just use Google Street View to look it up.

hyperlink because it's owned by the government and I don't want to
get into trouble with the government),
j. This website only lists major shopping
malls in San Francisco, and nearby cities like Daly City and Colma
and San Bruno. If you want to get a list
of all major shopping malls in the
entire San Francisco Bay Area (e.g. Stanford Shopping Center in Palo
Alto), check out http://www.bigmallrat.com
and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Shopping_malls_in_the_San_Francisco_Bay_Area.
