Hudson Valley Mall is a shopping mall located in Kingston, New York, in the area known as the Town of Ulster. It is the lone mall in Ulster County and is the only mall located between Poughkeepsie and Albany. Owned and managed by CBL & Associates Properties, the mall opened in 1981 and has an area of 765,000 square feet (71,100 m2) on one level with over 70 shops and restaurants as well as a 12-screen Regal Cinema theater. Adjacent to the mall is Hudson Valley Plaza, a two-tiered complex of "big-box" stores on a west-facing hill, consisting mostly of a Walmart, Petsmart and Toys "R" Us, as well as a few other shops.
Hudson Valley Mall has been notable for its resurgence from near-death after the original owner The Pyramid Company remodeled and rejuvenated the mall in the late-1990s, as well as being the site of a shooting in 2005 and a murder in 2006 at one of the mall's restaurants.
