Maybe a small convenience store, but that doesn't really fit in with the current vision for the property.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10939514266523110682noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3857633056849153171.post-14299276198912490172015-02-18T22:59:33.600-08:002015-02-18T22:59:33.600-08:00yes. the one good thing about it is that it is off...yes. the one good thing about it is that it is off the freeway and so many people see it.<br /><br />Me and my family are over there a lot for the movies. And now with the buffaflo wild wings and Dave and Busters, it has been better. Also, the souplantation is nice too. But yes, that area suffered a lot from vacancy.<br /><br />but there is some space left on the top floor, and a small-market could go there for the apartments.

They lost one anchor to bankruptcy (Borders) and the other to Fox Hills Mall (Nordstrom Rack). They're tried to reposition themselves as entertainment/restaurants instead of retail, but I'm not sure that it's working.<br /><br />A few urban design flaws also hold the mall back, some of which aren't HHC's fault. The freeway and hilly topography obviously make access difficult for anyone on foot, plus the insular single-family neighborhoods in Westchester don't facilitate walking.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10939514266523110682noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3857633056849153171.post-57200219796636495582015-02-18T22:25:25.885-08:002015-02-18T22:25:25.885-08:00hmmm i c i c.
