WESTFIELD CONNECTICUT POST
The 'Westfield Connecticut Post', formerly the 'Connecticut Post Mall', is a 3-story shopping mall, located on the Boston Post Road in Milford, Connecticut. It is currently owned and operated by The Westfield Group. It was formerly owned by Connecticut Post Limited.
The mall opened in 1960[1] and underwent a renovation in the late 1980s, adding the Skyview Cafe food court, and losing an anchor store, Alexander's.
The Mall strongly opposed the proposed rival New Haven Galleria mall at Long Wharf, filing over 15 lawsuits.[2][3]
