Norwich was the eighth most prosperous shopping destination in the UK in 2006.The Mall Norwich (previously Castle Mall until 2007) presents an ingenious solution to the problem of accommodating new retail space in a historic city-centre environment - the building is largely concealed underground and built into the side of a hill, with a public park created on its roof in the area south of the Castle. Chapelfield mall opened in September 2005, and is described as ''a major new shopping experience'', featuring a new flagship department store House of Fraser. Despite some bad press from local businesses, in August 2006 it was reported by the Javelin Group that Norwich was one of the top five retail destinations in the UK, and in October 2006 the city centre was voted the best in the UK, in a shopping satisfaction survey run by Goldfish Credit Card.
