The mall generation is dying off, the days of women going to mall and spending bank on trinkets and crap they don’t need is gone.
Economy is different, inflation is making this type spending harder
Everything is online and is generally cheaper and super convenient (next day or two day shipping) without a trip to the mall
Mall shooters, viruses, thefts, rapes, etc going at malls these days makes malls unsafe to their target demographic
Feral teens roaming the place, they buy nothing and bring their attitudes, crime and rudeness to chase away the few customers who do show up
Ours lost the restaurants first, Ruby Tuesdays and Appleby’s moved and Morrison’s went out of business, then the jewelry stores closed then the big anchor stores, then the food court vendors. All that’s left is small retail locally owned ‘urban’ clothing stores and one upscale department store, Dillard’s, the rest is trashy crap stores...........
