>>1422902He's incredibly wrong and so are you.
A big part of the urban revival around 2010 was local high-end restaurants and breweries renovating old city-center buildings. Come to think of it, I've never heard of a local restaurant opening in a mall.
I'm going to assume you know you're lying.
Malls did lose a lot of corporate tenants as well, which made many other smaller stores follow. That's why so many malls are dead now.
In fact, I know a large mall REIT who's changing their business model to focus more on downtown development in Philadelphia because malls are doing so poorly.
Anyway I'm awaiting the inevitable lies you're about to spew so I can prove you wrong again.
