I think the Plaza will start to get better by subtraction. When the national chains start to whither and die, locals will fill the vacuum. many local stores may not be able to afford the rent? national chains outnumber local stores at most malls, and it's not a good time to be a mall retailer, many...

will the Russel Stover in the former American Eagle be open past Easter?

Someone complaining the plaza is a teen clothing center or has bad restaurants or this or that is missing the point that the plaza has always served the culture of the times. Not really. The plaza spent much of its life as a unique upscale shopping center and a neighborhood shopping center for a ve...

What on earth.

It needs a pharmacy much more than it needs Houstons.

or Foot Locker

drain the swamp, make the Plaza great again Trump

I am hoping the new ownership group will upscale the plaza once again and make it less of a teen clothing center with a few overpriced restaurant chains. teens actually don't really spend much on clothes nowadays, they spent the $$$ on iphones, and I would think they'd want to keep those places awa...

is there any room for a Walgreens or CVS?

With the new ownership, the plaza should be moving towards a more higher end shopping center. Both companies have extensive experience in the retail industry and they have an impressive portfolio of existing malls. Let's see if they can make the transition without compromising the local mix of shop...

So Houstons has been there a long time and has a "following", that still doesn't change the fact that it is a chain with completely mediocre food. I think their clientele is getting elderly and probably doesn't go out as often any more. Let's wait until we see what takes it's place before...

will this attract protesters to Cordish developments which are in large cities where Trump lost big, even in otherwise red states?

probably in battleground states again, in the Sun Belt or Rust Belt, anyplace where the vote was decided by less than 5%

no schools cancelled for the parade, Chicago city schools were already off

do any big agri corps sponsor the Royal? Cargil? Monsanto? Bayer? Tyson?

maybe they are trying to get younger single employees who don't care about the schools, guess Cerner isn't

could they turn the Southwest HS into offices or apartments if the district ever decides to sell the building?

Most of the younger people I work with that have young families have long ago given up on the burbs and have moved to the inner suburbs and city - and just fork out what it takes for private schools.
