Fascinating concept for a community. My town was dominated by a huge mall, knocked down most of the downtown stores to build it in the early 1970s. They say some of the original downtown was "bad looking/looked like a slum" and that building a mall benefitted everyone. It's mostly empty now, has been for decades. I heard rumors, years ago, that "they" are going to remove most of the roof and turn it into an office park, with the mall storefronts turned into office space.

"A dead mall is a shopping mall with a high vacancy rate or a low consumer traffic level, or that is deteriorating in some manner."
