Its been a minimum of 11 years since I've been in one, but I've heard the one nearest me is still going strong, there apparently isnt an empty store in the place

It’s hard to reconcile the large amount of brick and mortar retailer closings with that seemingly low percentage of ecommerce shopping. In just 2018 Toys R Us, Ann Taylor, Walgreens, Kmart, The Gap, Footlocker, and more have closed all or a large number of their stores. https://www.businessinsider.com/stor...n-2018-2017-12 |

But none of those stores were Sears, Kmart, Macy’s, Toys R Us, Radio Shack, etc. There has never been a time when the major retailers were disappearing from the brick and mortar like they are now. Or malls closing. https://www.businessinsider.com/the-...-photos-2017-3 I’m not rooting against brick and mortar, quite the opposite. There doesn’t seem to be any question that the retail landscape is being remade like never before. How that settles out in the end will be interesting to see. A positive possibility for commercial real estate space formerly occupied by closed stores: https://www.businessinsider.com/what...d-malls-2017-5 |
Indoor malls have been dying a slow death for years.
Outdoor malls are still thriving. |
I know you like to watch the dead mall videos on Youtube, dont you Simply Red?

The last mall I was in was the Fair Oaks Mall in Fairfax VA. I was there several times to pay my Verizon bill, buy a pair of shoes at Clark's and some other insignificant crap. 6-7 years ago.
I spend little to no time in ANY mall and the mall I grew up with in NJ was one of the FIRST malls ever built by the DeBartolo family of San Francisco 49ers's fame and owners. The crappy POS mall is still there with Sears, Sterns, JC Penney's and Macy's as the 4 major anchors. I've been in a mall about 5 times in the last 30 years, 3 times to find the property manager for my job. :shake: |
