The following list represents the top 10 largest mall in Northern California and Reno, but no malls in Reno made the list (sorry western Nevada). Size is determined by Gross Leasable Area (GLA) or leasable retail space. GLA provided by mall owners or operators and may differ due to rounding or opinion. Honestly, it's difficult to get two people to agree... even from the same mall.

1. Westfield San Francisco Centre - San Francisco (1,500,000 sq. ft.)
2. Westfield Valley Fair - San Jose (1,475,600 sq. ft.) tied with Stanford Shopping Center - Palo Alto (1,475,600 sq. ft.)

oh, i almost forgot.... please contact me at scott@bitnergoodman.com.... thank you!
I used to go to Sun Valley Mall quite a bit when I worked in the area. For something that looks rather old I was surprised how well it actually seemed to be doing.
actually, westfield roseville galleria is about 1.5 million square feet of shopping space. source from the westfield website (development section)
The source of the Westfield Galleria at Roseville square footage is from http://westfield.com/corporate/property-portfolio/united-states/galleriaatroseville.html
I was not able to find the 1.5 million sq. ft. In the Developments section. Please provide a link if you can and I will make an update.
GLA and building size often differ. That might explain the descrepency.
According to Westfield's 2010 Annual Report, SF Centre has 1,460,778 SQF in lettable area vs. Valley Fair's 1,477,769 SQF. Roseville is listed at 1,182,825 SQF.

Thanks for sharing those lists of a shopping mall there. Hope to see more photos of those malls. I also want to see those malls in person.

The Westfield link is really dated. San Francisco Centre's actual size, according to a Westfield SF official via e-mail & one of its developers JCDecaux, is 1,564,533 square feet making it larger than Valley Fair. In spite of this, SF Centre is NOT the largest in Northern California nor even San Francisco. Measuring in at 46 acres(roughly 2 million square feet) incl. Aquarium of the Bay is Pier 39 as N. Cal's largest!
It should be noted that the figures give are for total leasable area. Valley Fair's 1.479 mil. sq. ft. translates to 100% of its available space as being leasable for retail, whereas its not the case with Westfield San Francisco Center. Approximately 150,000 sq. of Westfield San Francisco Centre's over 1.5 million sq. ft. is reserved for SF State University & offices, not retail. In contrast, 100% of Valley Fair's 1.479 million square feet of occupable space is available for lease. Whichever way you look at it, Westfield San Francisco Centre is larger than Valley Fair. Hope this clears up the confusion.
Westfield San Francisco Centre is a beautiful and interesting place to visit, however, Westfield Roseville Galleria is much larger in land size, San Francisco Centre has multiples floor as Roseville Galleria only has two floor. I'd visited both places.
