You'll find this outdoor shopping-and-entertainment complex in the heart of downtown Fort Lauderdale, on the sleepy yet scenic New River -- as a result of its river site, it has more charm than most such complexes. In fact, if you've got a boat, you can sail here. A host of bars, restaurants, and shops, not to mention a high-tech virtual-reality arcade, the Escape, and a multiplex cinema are enough to keep you occupied for at least a few hours. On weekends, this place is packed.
