    The parking space is what sold this shopping centre the most. the parking space is impeccable, no problem to find parking, if its even to park on another lot to walk across youll always get park. Medical, banking, food, dentistry, cosmetology, clothing, commnication, stationary, gas station, pharmacy and betting

    Actually Plaza Las Americas is the largest mall in the Caribbean. Then in the English speaking Caribbean in T&T we know it to be Trincity mall in Jamaica you guys say Fair View Shopping Plaza. Also I know there is discussions about whether there are Outdoor and Indoor malls and that is another complication. I know Trincity is an Indoor mall and Fair View Shapping Plaza is a Outdoor mall. So there are different types of mall.

    It is not even in the top 5 of the largest shopping center in the English speaking Caribbean. What is wrong with Jamaicans that there’s alway have this need to be the best or biggest in the Caribbean in everything? You’ll have a serious problem of deficiency and never-have-nothingness.

      @@drivinginjamaica Unbelievable! I know you don’t even know what you talking about. Just a simple google search would tell you the square footage and number of stores in that mall. Then you can compare that with the largest mall in the Caribbean and English speaking Caribbean. Get a passport and do some travel.

    Lol, PLEASE do your research. This is not the largest Mall in the Caribbean. Not because something is the biggest in Jamaica means it's the largest in the Caribbean. You all drop that waaaay too often. Smh.

      Stacy Adams: Fair View is the Largest Outdoor Mall in the whole Caribbean both English or Spanish speaking. Puerto Rico has the largest in door Mall. There are no other Outdoor Malls in Cuba, Dominican Republic or Haiti that's bigger than Fair View. This area is larger than some Caribbean islands.🙂

      Oh shut up! This is not about Trinidad. There is NOTHING about Trinidad! I've been there and Jamaica looks better than Trinidad on its worse day. Jamaica has MANY more malls than Trinidad and they come in all different sizes, shapes, statuses, etc.
