Well, the largest mall in America is the Mall Of America in MN. The first mall ever built in America was the Southdale Shopping Center, also in MN, which still stands today. It has been open since 1956.

The first shopping mall was the Country Club Plaza, founded by the J.C. Nichols Company and opened near Kansas City, Mo., in 1922. The first enclosed mall called Southdale opened in Edina, Minnesota (near Minneapolis) in 1956. In the 1980s, giant megamalls were developed. The West Edmonton Mall in Alberta, Canada, opened in 1981 - with more than 800 stores and a hotel, amusement park, miniature-golf course, church, "water park" for sunbathing and Surfing, a zoo and a 438-foot-long lake.
