Its dead.
Finishline
Shiekh
And few of stores have closed up shop.
If your ever wanna witness the death of malls. West oaks mall is where you will experience it.
I do find great deals and steals at footlocker that still doing business but thats rarely.
I think the whole of houston goes to memorial mall or galleria.

E-commerce retail is the real reason why malls are dying. Amazon and others have really eaten into the marketshare.
Malls won’t fully go away but the Square footage of malls will get a lot smaller in future when they develop new ones.

Yup and First Colony in Sugarland. People say Sharpstown is dead because of the name. Last time I went in there ALL the sneaker and "urban" clothing stores were still there.

I would go to Willowbrook and Memorial. Hated trying to park at the Galleria on busy days. Never even shopped there; just test drove the Teslas and ate at the restaurants.

It's wild. I take it because in that area, there isn't really any other source of shops + no direct trains or subways.

Theres also an old Imperial Sugar Mill is out there too. They don't hide it either. Neighborhoods like Plantation Colony..

That Orange Garage is lit. The yellow on weekends/holiday are cool when they open it up on that otherside.
Memorial City Mall is the best mall in Houston though.

They're gonna end up becoming "luxury" apartments and condos
I've also seen a ton of urgent care places popping up replacing retail space. Better option than hospitals for consumers who don't actually need to be admitted. Just hire a few nurse practitioners to triage/take care of all the mild sicknesses.

Is the Xanadu actually going to open?
I only work a couple blocks away so I always see it and there's been more progress with it within the last few months than in the last decade. So maybe
