    The malls have one thing going for them property and lots of it....... now what to do with it.

    In EJ DeBartolo's old pride and joy the Southern Park Mall in Boardman Ohio with his statue in it is slowly shrinking to nothing.  Dillards is closed JCP is next maybe MACY'S and they demolished my favorite old store SEARS and have converted it into somekind of outdoor entertainment whatever.

    Sad.

      The Sears at our biggest mall is turning in to some sort of Marriott hotel.  It's located right off I-75 and there are a lot of hotels in the immediate area, so I guess it makes some sense.

      If everybody had like minds, we would never learn.

        The closest mall to me has been completely torn down in the Amazon distribution center built in its place.

            Yea,  and that is why I said it is appropriate that the Amazon distribution centers sit where some malls used to be:  Randall Park,  Rolling Acres.   What about in your area?  What happened to the malls there?

              The Eastwood Mall in my old hometown of Niles Ohio owned by the Carfaro family is doing great but they were smart and put that class A baseball park behind the mall which until this year was affiliated with the Cleveland Indians plus they put in hotel directly in the complex and others surrounding the mall area.  They have had some of the same problems that other malls have had but have come through.  Lots of restaurants and it is a beautiful mall.

              The Indians will miss that 20 year connection with Eastwood Field,. Niles/Akron/Columbus was nice.  CC Sabathia, Victor Martino and others started there.

              The SP Mall in Boardman Ohio doesn't have all of that and is slowly dying.

                I used to walk to Great Northern mall in North Olmsted after high school. We would sit at the high top tables in the middle of the food court and smoke and eat Baskin and Robbins ice cream

                Yes, back then you could smoke indoors

                    I think so. But I haven’t lived there in almost 3 years
