Malls have been killed by amazon prime. Why waste time when
the item can be delivered to your door in 2 days?
Malls have turned into stores to try stuff on.
The really bad news is that software that will take a selfie and translate that into custom fit clothes is right around the corner. Once this happens, malls will be in big trouble.
Speaking of big trouble, how many of the defunct malls are carried at top value on the books of the too big to fail corporations?

No kidding. I’ve been here in my Iowa college town for almost 8 years. I’ve probably been in the mall 10 times, and that’s twice for mall-walking.
Though we have all the regular stores, they are smaller. Too often the selection just isn’t worth leaving the house for. I’m better off shopping on the store’s website, walmart.com, or amazon. I just got some new bookcases and a coffee table delivered. I got what I wanted rather than settling for whatever was in the store.
I do hate to see the malls go, tho. I picture the happy families shopping, teens with their first jobs, etc. There’s a lot of American social life that can be studied in a mall.
