Amazon is killing off suburban malls, not buses. If suburban malls were jammed with people as they once were, buses wouldn’t matter so much. There’s always the urban mall troublemakers can go to.

“Dead malls” do offer communities a lot of opportunities, but they’d probably rather have the property taxes, so nothing much is going to be done with them.

Amazon is killing off suburban malls...


Prolly so they can buy them on the cheap ... to house old folks, in a few years.

You heard it, here, first.

Amazon has been a factor.

However malls were dying off before amazon. Malls wound up becoming oversaturated in certain areas, and new malls that were bigger and newer often in better locations than existing malls, surpassed older, smaller, dated, less upkept malls.
