The Hollywood Fashion Center was a shopping mall located at the corner of Pines Boulevard (State Road 820) and US 441 in Hollywood, Florida.

The mall opened in 1972, and had four anchor stores: Burdines, Jordan Marsh, JC Penney and Richards.

Restaurants in the mall included Briargate, Mr. Dunderbachs, Walgreens fountain and grill, and The Orange Bowl.

Some of the anchors had restaurants in them as well. restaurants in Jordan Marsh and Burdines upstairs in each. Stores included Sir Rolands Barbershop, The Plum Tree, Florshiem Shoes, Joy Rubin Art Emporium, The Oxford Shoppe, County Seat , Merrygoround, Lillie Rubin, Thom McAn ,Game Arcade, Pet store, Hallmark Cards, Spencers Gifts, Bakers Shoes, Firestone Tire Auto Repair outside the mall, Merle Norman, Walgreens and Walgreens Liquor Store, Lane Bryant, Barons, just to name a few.

With the opening of Pembroke Lakes Mall in nearby Pembroke Pines, Florida in 1992, most of the anchor stores in the Fashion Center moved to the bigger stores at Pembroke Lakes Mall. The mall closed in 1993, but for a brief period from 2002-2004 it served as an indoor flea market named Millenium SuperMall "Hollywood's City Place" until it was discovered many of the booths were selling stolen wares. It has been closed since then. However, the building itself still stands today.

One of the unique features of this mall is that most of the parking spaces were on top of the structure, this can be seen clearly from shots using Google Maps map. Several attempts were made at turning portions of the mall into a strip shopping center, anchored by a Smart & Final store, but all eventually failed.
