- al_borland 4y agoThat would be pretty interesting. Are they mixed use spaces? It would be kind of cool to have an apartment with shops you can just walk to, like a little town square. It would be quite ironic to live in an old mall, while then needing to drive to get anything.
- fibonachos 4y agoSeems like an amazing opportunity to build a pedestrian-centric community. Include a grocery store, coffee shop, gym, and some green space, with automobile infrastructure exclusively below ground or on the periphery. The idea being that you don’t need a car for most of your daily needs. Doesn’t sound half-bad to me if I’m a renter (which I was for most of my adult life).
- tomcam 4y agoHaven’t lived there in 30 years. Which ones? Guessing Orange Mall, maybe some in Garden Grove or Santa Ana?
