The mall is adjacent to its more successful rival, the Poughkeepsie Galleria, and the two properties are linked by a series of roads between the two properties. These roads pass directly in front of a Lowe's, situated on land between the Shoppes and the Galleria. The Galleria's existence led to the slow decline and eventual closure of South Hills Mall. Following the closing of the indoor mall, the mall was demolished, rebuilt, rebranded, and reopened in 2008 as an outdoor strip mall.
