By 1996, Dekalb County's OUTLET SQUARE was on life support. It was sold to a consortium of Asian investors who remarketed it as ORIENTAL MALL ATLANTA. This concept had crashed and burned by the turn of the century. The fourth -and final- version of the mall has been the most successful in its history. PLAZA FIESTA, a Latin-themed shopping and entertainment facility, debuted in April 2000.

The complex was rebuilt to resemble a Mexican village. PLAZA FIESTA was the first shopping mall in the United States to be marketed to the Latino community. It was followed by other ventures, such as Fort Worth's LA GRAN PLAZA (2004) and Houston's PLAZAMERICAS (2009).

In 2020, PLAZA FIESTA housed over 400 vendors, retail stores and restaurants. Its major tenants were Shoppers World, Ross Dress For Less, the Fiesta Farmers Market and Mansion Elan nightclub.
