In some parts of the US, the weather is bad for half of the year. In those places, malls are bustling with activity every weekend.
I think this is a regional thing; in warmer climates, outdoor shopping centers with community-centric areas have been all the rage for years.

One of the most popular malls in Milwaukee, Wisconsin is in fact an outdoor "town center," a nomenclature I take issue with. https://www.bayshoretowncenter.com/ https://www.bayshoretowncenter.com/
