I was in an upscale Texas mall a few months ago, lots and lots of people, the vast majority, aside from maybe a pretzel or burger, had bought nothing.
The only retail store cranking out paying customers was the Apple Store.
Which part of Texas was this ‘upscale mall’ in....that had lots of people?
Just curious.
Fun fact. There are no Apple stores in the Eastern District of Texas (which includes the wealthy northern suburban counties of Dallas.) From Denton (north of Fort Worth) to the Eastern suburbs of Houston on the Gulf coast, no Apple stores.
There was an Apple Store at our local mall. One night it was robbed. Within 3 days it closed, never to open again..
That mall has just celebrated its 50 years open.
Changed a lot over the years.
Someone in my city thought it would be a capital idea to open a mall right next to a Black housing project. Well, at least the movie theaters in it flourished...
Where Iām at, the mall and the area around the mall are actually expanding.
