Originally built in 1977, the Amsterdam Mall is a shopping center-turned-office building in Amsterdam, New York. Originally constructed along with the creation of the Amsterdam Arterial (a series of loops, one-ways and bridges that moved traffic of Routes 30, 5, and 67 with ease), it consisted of a single-level plaza, built in the original East Main Street, with about 12 stores that included Holsheimer & Shall, Gabbys', Millers', and Lumarts. By 1980, a major expansion was built which included a sqaure-shaped, two-story shopping center that included a covered parking garage. In its heyday, stores included The Carl Company, Mc Corry's, Tuxego, Present Comany, Fashion Bug, a four-screen cinema, and a Grand Union grocery store. It also offered a small food court with Mr. B's Best and Orange Julius.

As of 1999, the mall became dead. All of the major stores have closed, leaving the NYS Labor Department, a Chinese restaurant, True Value Hardware (Former Grand Union), J.C. Penny Catalog Store, and a OTB (Off-Track Betting) Parlor, among a few low-end retail stores. Officially renamed Amsterdam Riverfront Center, the structure now features a pedestrian bridge, connecting the center with the Riverlink Park.
