Mizner Park is an upscale lifestyle center in downtown Boca Raton, Florida. Besides upscale shops, Mizner is also composed of rental apartments and offices. The Centre for the Arts at Mizner Park is a cultural center on the north end of the development, which is embodied by an amphitheater and the Boca Raton Museum of Art. The art museum, Robb & Stucky Interiors (formerly Jacobson's), and a Sunrise Cinema are the center's anchor stores. Cooper Carry designed the architecture of Mizner as a Mediterranean revival town center.

Previously, the site of Mizner Park was a conventional enclosed shopping center called Boca Mall, which opened in 1974.[1] Boca Mall was originally anchored by Britt's and Jefferson Ward. The former closed in 1982 and was temporarily occupied by IBM offices until 1985, when it was converted to Levitz Furniture.[2] In 1989, as part of the redevelopment, Levitz relocated and Jefferson Ward closed. The closure of these anchors led to the mall's redevelopment.[3]
Crocker Partners, the developer of Mizner originally intended for a similar project, the McNulty Building, to be built on a more compressed site at Federal Highway and Palmetto Park Road.[4] To this day, a parking lot occupies the space.
