Malls have been a dead business model for a long time. Major rework or doom is the future there.
The model of building residential high rises with retail at the bottom has been going on for a while >> I wonder if you flip the model and build a residential high rise on or in an existing mall. Do you think that doing this would re-energize retail in these places? I know traditional retail is falling off now that people are shopping online, but there's got to be an angle.

^good point. Re malls, investment and changing demographics seem to be the issue. Malls I visit across the country are either thriving or dying (Post Oak Mall, Highland Mall in Austin).

Some of the former tenants of Post Oak Mall have told me that part of the problem with the mall is management. Rents are outrageous for one thing. Then, there seems to be an attitude that tenants come a "dime a dozen". A former manager of Eddie Bauer at the mall told me that they never wanted to close. The management made such outrageous demands , that Eddie Bauer told them to just forget it and pulled out. Other stores have supposedly been treated the same way.

Not sure if already posted. Noticed that Pings is gone and a Jins Cafe sign is up. It is in Culpepper Plaza next to the AT&T store.
I know, I loved that place

So the new Hungry Howie's will be just north of University on Texas Ave? So I'm guessing its on the Bryan side?


Yep.

Should be open early to mid April.

They're supposedly giving away free pizza for a year two 2/3 people the day the store opens.
