Alderwood (Lynnwood, WA)

Alderwood serves as the retail heart of the North Seattle suburbs, attracting a diverse mix of families, young professionals, and affluent shoppers from across Snohomish County. Located in Lynnwood, just off I-5 and Highway 405, the center benefits from strong regional accessibility and a broad customer base seeking a blend of fashion, lifestyle, and experiential retail. Anchored by Nordstrom, Macy’s, and Apple, Alderwood’s tenant mix includes sought-after brands like Lululemon, Sephora, Aritzia, and Warby Parker, alongside popular dining options and entertainment experiences such as Dave & Buster’s and a state-of-the-art AMC theater. Compared to nearby lifestyle centers like The Village at Totem Lake, which focuses on boutique and open-air retail, Alderwood balances the convenience of an enclosed shopping environment with an outdoor “lifestyle wing” that enhances the customer experience.
