The Shoppes at Arbor Lakes is a 412,000 square-foot lifestyle center located in Maple Grove, Minnesota. The mall was designed by Opus Northwest in collaboration with Red Development and opened September 12, 2003. The Shoppes are designed to have the look and feel of a traditional Main Street. Unlike a regional mall, which would have anchor tenants (generally department stores such as Macy's or Marshall Field's), the lifestyle center aims to have smaller, boutique-styled stores.

In keeping with lifestyle center tradition, the Shoppes at Arbor Lakes is made up of mainly upscale national chains such as Pottery Barn, Williams Sonoma, P.F. Chang's China Bistro, Banana Republic, Coldwater Creek, Talbot's, Abercrombie and Fitch, Express and American Eagle.

The primary target markets for lifestyle centers such as the Shoppes are young, affluent men and women as well as middle-aged to older women. These demographic groups also happen to have the most purchasing power in the United States of America.

In 2005, Opus and Red Development worked to open Woodbury Lakes in Woodbury, Minnesota, a suburb that shares nearly identical demographics to Maple Grove.
