I still prefer malls for clothing.

Clothing is one of those things that I need to try prior to order unless its maybe a scarf or a hat.

Its not really the dying malls or even strip malls that are the plague for the urban fabric of cities but the lagging of actual stores. The mom and pops that make some places unique.

Those need to flourish. Add some variety to life.

IDK, I don't mind malls. It gets people out of the house, and walking as opposed to growing the mass of protoplasm in your stomach by sitting at ones desk clicking on Amazon for cheap Chinese goods. Helps folks get some vitamin D via sunlight.

Plus it gives the young kin of suburban America somewhere to hang out and meet girls with lip piercings. Teens need somewhere to be teens, and the mall is where bored suburban kids go to meet folks and make weed connects. And so... malls help our kids!
