In 2012, Westfield North County celebrated the opening of a 150,000-square-foot, multilevel Target with a grocery section and pharmacy. The property's revitalization featured a remodeled dining court, as well as unprecedented design and décor enhancements. In close proximity to Westfield North County are some of the most desirable residential communities in northern San Diego County, such as Rancho Bernardo, Poway, Escondido, Scripps Ranch, San Marcos, and Rancho Santa Fe. In addition, the center enjoys great visibility from the area's principal regional thoroughfare (I-15), and shares the same highway exit as the world-famous San Diego Zoo Safari Park. Outstanding brands on property include Nordstrom, Target, Apple, Macy's, Forever 21, MAC Cosmetics, Coach, H&M, Lush, The Cheesecake Factory, and BJ's Restaurant & Brewhouse.
