Malls Aren't Dying, They're Thriving

Awesome! goes to her local mall... Oh wait. Its dying and has quite literally two businesses left in it. It's the only mall within an hour from where I live.

The mall at the last place I lived closed down a couple years ago, also due to lack of business.

I know my experience is of a very small sample...

The failure of your local mall doesn't extend to the concept of "malls are dying". As the article says:

To suggest malls are dead based on failure in failed places would be like suggesting that the manifest shortcomings of Baltimore or Buffalo means urban centers are not doing well. Like cities, not all malls are alike.
