Country Club Plaza = Bannister Mall part 2?
KANSAS CITY, Mo. - More than 100 teens converged on the Country Club Plaza Saturday night and created a ruckus for patrons and a lot of work for Kansas City police officers.
Read more: http://www.kshb.com/dpp/news/local_n...#ixzz2tczs9I7u Stories like those about the plaza have been rolling in for the last year or longer. At one point there was a shooting and they have put a curfew in place I remember years ago bannister mall area was thriving. Hypermart and all the other surrounding stores were very popular and always busy. Crime slowly strangled the area and people chose to go elsewhere. The whole place turned into a ghost town. Obviously Cerner is building there now but the question I pose is simple There are a lot of options other than the plaza around KC so... Will the Plaza die the same way the Bannister area did? |

Most of the new malls being built around the country are "open air" now to discourage the teen and thug hangout behavior. But I guess in the Plaza's case it's not working much?

It doesn't help that the Plaza is near urban areas, which typically have higher crime rates than suburban areas.

No its not. Theres still some good bars down there but its not the weekend hang out it used to be. Last time I was there the streets were packed with teens who could do nothing but slow traffic and harass patrons. Maybe they cleaned that up.
