Abandoned
I went to a local mall last night for dinner. I had not eaten in the Cheesecake Factory for years, so we decided to try it again. The food was delicious and the portions were huge. When we left the restaurant I felt like we were walking in an abandoned building. Stores that once were overflowing with crowds were dark and empty. There was only one food court vendor and it was closed for the night. The center kiosks were just empty shells. We could hear our voices echoing when we spoke. It was sad to think that a fairly new mall could fail so poorly. The stores were good ones, the location was also good, but without any "anchor" stores, businesses could not survive. Rumor has it that it will turn into a flea market. We will just have to wait and see.
