I have not done malls for many years. The traffic is the main reason. The constantly increasing convenience of internet shopping and heavily discounted prices there is another.
Heck, I don’t even window shop any more - except on the internet.

I found every single significant gift this year online. Nothing came from a retail store.
The stores simply no longer carry inventory. Seems “inventory” is a bad word. No one wants to have “overages”, meaning, after a seasonal period what is left in inventory. Retail targets 0% overage. They would rather have sold out of a small inventory than have sold a large inventory with some inventory left over. The incentives is “0% overages”, not “total sales”.
The dumbing down of American continues.

It’s so crowded, nobody goes there anymore. - Y Berra
