Well I just emailed Simon malls giving them a suggestion that they should buy the mall and renovate it where lazy people wouldn't.
Simon + 1.4 million square feet = one heck of a fancy mall.
That or the owners of Quail Springs...
I can't fathom everyone mentioning living quarters, or medical or school buildings, as then this city will go straight down the crapper with its lack of stores.
This city would probably next lose Best Buy and the nearest ones to those of us in the metro would be 10 minutes in each direction. Make that 10-20 in any given direction. No bookstore for at least 10-20 minutes in each direction, coupled with the fact the best movie theatres are the same distance, and what does this city have? Some fast food joints, tons of car lots, factories, and a couple of clothing stores not worth shopping at (I'm a Buckle, Hollister, AE, A&F, Dillards kind of guy.)
I would be driving to areas outside the city where money would flow and help those areas flourish while this city goes to waste with nothing that matters.
Ever wonder why Moore is up and coming? They got great schools, good housing additions, and now the best stores flocking there.
This city deserves better then to drool over a new highway, that will only help people drive through our city more convienantly getting from west to east coast and vise versa.
I'm to passionate about this city and what it loses, to think that we need more medical buildings, and community colleges, where people make their life and then move to better pastures where they have the convienance of good shopping everywhere near them...
This city cannot afford to lose places like Best Buy, all the while not having places like Borders or Barnes and Noble, or even a NICE movie theatre.
Makes me want to move to Moore or northside, or off of Memorial where life is flourishing.
Man I want this city to rise from the ashes and stop losing more then it's receiving.
