The Commons at Calabasas is a retail and entertainment complex in Calabasas, California, United States. Built, owned, and operated by Rick J. Caruso and his company Caruso Affiliated, the complex features Barnes & Noble in addition to a Regency Theatres. It has now become a tourist destination as celebrities, such as Kim Kardashian, are frequently seen at the high-end shopping center.
Development of the upscale retail and entertainment complex began with a vision of an Umbrian village, complementing the community's Mediterranean style. Caruso Affiliated want to build a shopping center that could serve as a town center for the city of Calabasas. The Commons at Calabasas opened in 1998 as a high-end outdoor mall.[1]

Renovated to be a retail resort, its 40 tenants provide everyday needs, lifestyle/specialty shops, and entertainment. The high-end retail stores, restaurants and entertainment choices is set against the hillsides of Calabasas, one of the wealthiest communities in California.[2]
