The second-largest mall in America has opened its doors in the state of New Jersey. The mall, called American Dream, has been in development for more than 20 years. The $5-billion project has more than 450 different stores and places to eat. The mall also has major park rides, an indoor ski hill and water slides. American Dream is the second-largest U.S. mall after the Mall of America, which is in the Midwestern state of Minnesota. American Dream will open in stages over several months. The first part of the mall to open, on October 25, was the Nickelodeon Universe park. The park contains more than 35 rides and other activities, says the mall’s website. The DreamWorks water park is set to open on November 27. Next to open will be the ski hill, which is described as North America’s only indoor real-snow park.
