King of Prussia, also referred to as King of Prussia Mall, and referred to locals as KOP, is a shopping mall located in the community of King of Prussia in Upper Merion Township, Pennsylvania. It is the largest shopping mall in Pennsylvania and the third-largest shopping mall in the United States in terms of gross leasable area. It is an upscale mall with 450 retailers.
The mall opened in 1963, with a complex that became known as "The Plaza". A second, entirely separate complex, "The Court", opened adjacent to it in 1981. In 2016, a major expansion was completed, connecting the two buildings and creating one large shopping mall.[4]
