    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

    You are the one exhibiting that trait, as you seem to have been all  Alicia over the Amazon  humorous comment.   I was referring to the fact that a lot of closed malls are now being turned into Amazon distribution centers.  Flew right over your head.
