This is my thinking as well. I've watched them build these stores. Its a basic steel frame and lots of cinder block and sheet metal. They're made just like cheap warehouses, except they'll have spray insulation and drywall interiors. The tar covered flat roofs are cheap too. Everything about this contruction is cheap and requires significant maintenance going forward. Big box stores can afford this, but can it survive as a make-shift mall with such crappy construction? I imagine it just makes more sense to tear them down.
