The Eastwood Mall is an indoor shopping center located in Niles, Ohio, USA, serving the Youngstown-Warren area. It contains over 200 stores and restaurants.

Opened in 1969, the mall has seen extensive renovations several times, most recently in late 2006 with the addition of a 350-seat food court. In late 2007, a 3-tank aquarium, known as the Equarium, was added to center court.

The Eastwood Mall is one of the largest mall complexes in the United States, covering 3,200,000 square feet (300,000 m2).[1] The mall had reported gross leaseable space for the entirety of its complex including surrounding properties to the ICSC, not just the mall proper. The Directory of Major Malls reports that only 1.6 million of Gross Leaseable Space are enclosed within the mall proper itself, making it currently ineligible for inclusion on the list of largest shopping malls in the United States based on total square feet of retail space. Management included a separate strip mall, big-box stores and restaurants adjacent in the parking lot or on neighboring streets as part of the complex therefore those areas were excluded as part of the criteria of a single distinct shopping mall.[2]
