Anthony Cook+FollowRemember When Malls Were Weekend Plans?Ever notice how the local mall went from weekend hotspot to ghost town? Marley Station Mall in Glen Burnie was once packed with stores, movie nights, and food court hangs. Now, it’s mostly empty halls and a few die-hard tenants (shoutout to Gold’s Gym). The big lesson? Shopping habits have shifted online, so if you see a mall with more pop-ups than anchor stores, it’s probably on life support. Pro tip: Don’t count on malls for your next big hangout spot—unless you’re into nostalgia walks or gym sessions! #RetailTrends #MallMakeover #MoneyLifehacks #Business #LocalBusiness80Share
carlsongary+FollowColonial Park Mall: What’s Next?Remember hanging out at Colonial Park Mall? It’s been through a lot—anchor stores gone, ownership drama, and now, a whole lot of empty space. The latest twist? Plans for a trampoline park and a big makeover with apartments and new shops hit a wall because the owner and the township can’t agree. For locals, it means the mall’s future is still up in the air—so don’t expect a shopping or dining revival just yet! #Harrisburg #MallMakeover #RetailTrends #Business #LocalBusiness00Share
christinewhite+FollowFrom Mall Rats to Apartment Cats?Remember when weekends meant hanging at the mall? Oxford Valley Mall, once the go-to spot for shopping and movie nights, is swapping out empty stores for shiny new apartments. The big shift: where you used to buy jeans at Sears, you might soon be walking your dog or lounging by a pool. The real money move? Developers are betting that living, shopping, and playing in one spot is the new suburban dream. Would you trade your food court fries for a resort-style pool? #RealEstateTrends #MallMakeover #SuburbanLiving #Shopping00Share
Amanda Carroll+FollowFrom Mall Rats to Apartment Cats?Remember hanging out at DeSoto Square Mall? Well, those days are gone—what used to be Bradenton’s go-to shopping spot is now making way for apartments, a dog park, and a pool with cabanas. The big shift? Old malls aren’t just dying—they’re being flipped into places to live, not shop. So next time you pass a half-empty mall, imagine it as your future home (with a cyber lounge instead of a food court). #RetailReboot #MallMakeover #RealEstateTrends #Shopping30Share
