Alsa Mall is a shopping mall on Montieth Road in the neighbourhood of Egmore in Chennai, India.[1] Established in the mid-1980s, along with the Spencer Plaza, it is one of the oldest surviving malls in the city.[2] Alsa mall has a variety of shops in and around it. It is also considered to be a hangout location for youngsters during evening owing to the variety of street food vendors who hold business in the mall.

History[edit]

Alsa Mall was a private property before it was converted into a mall.[2] Along with the Spencer Plaza, it remained one of the premier shopping malls in the city until the 2000s, when numerous malls began to appear across the city.[2][3] In 2013, the mall became the first mall to host the state-owned Tamil Nadu State Marketing Corporation's (Tasmac) first premium alcoholic beverages outlet.[1]
