It hasn't been the same since the Libyans shot up the joint back in 1985.

The saddest are the malls that still get decent business but look like they're stuck in the 80's.
Always some wack *** stores like Things Remembered, Zumiez, and an Orange Julius. When you go in the morning you hear some random instrumental music and the sound of a water fountain. And all the employees look mentally checked out.

Only malls I frequent are First Colony and Memorial City. I maybe shop at the Galleria like once every 6 months. Just can't deal with that area and parking
I live like 10 min away from West Oaks and I still don't go there for anything. That mall was poppin a long time ago, now it's just dead.They've transformed Memorial City a lot these last couple years. Nice mall

I feel like the Galleria will never go dry
to me even in it's heyday. Almeda Mall used to be my spot, now i just go there cause that's where the only Champs I know of is, and for Great American Cookies. Malls in general just seem to be a thing of the past as the years go by. Some of the different business that open up in there just don't last long.
Side note: McCain(?) Mall in Little Rock sucks
McCain Mall is a piece of crap
University Mall in LR was awful too before they finally tore it down at one point all it had was a JC Penny and Sears

I loved going to the arcade on the top floor at Landmark back in the late 90's.

I was hoping this wouldn't be the case for long. I'm working less than a quarter mile away from Vallco at the Apple spaceship. New housing is going up in the area, they just rebuilt the block of land between Tantau and wolf, so many rich techies are going to be moving in. There were two measures in the election this time around regarding Vallco, both failed so it seems as if Vallco will stay a ghost town for a while.

Springfield was very much dead until they renovated it.

This is Randall park mall, outside of Cleveland, about 2 weeks ago.
At the time it opened it was the largest shopping center in the world.

Indoor & outdoor malls aren't the only options to shop, at least not in L.A. I feel for people who rely on those only two choices.

Basically
Outdoor malls are meh
Michigan has one good mall and that's somerset because it's a higher end mall but even that place is boring
The rest are ghetto as hell, surprised any of them are still open if you want my honest opinion

Love the idea of the thread, and I love looking at abandoned malls.
That said, I live in Chicago and rarely drive. I go to a mall maybe once or twice a year. But, like many have said, those memories of macking girls, Auntie Annie's, copping the latest J's at FL.
