You should have seen the mall when it was an open air mall. Business died when it was over 100 or it rained. We used to watch the Bullock store there sales drop from top three to bottom 5 every time it rained. Then they got the big remodel when the second floor was added to the mall while it was enclosed. Business was consistent but it somehow lacked the ambiance it once had. I think that was done in 1992 or 93.
