Those are awesome.

I have a feeling a few of those will survive the next few thousand years and get dug up, to quite a few puzzled looks. Or maybe some of the recent "copycat" malls in China, where, for example, they have a mall replica of the village of Hallstdatt:

Why are there no squatters there?

We're looking at A future, yes.  A future in which a combination of wealth disparity and online shopping has caused many brick & mortar businesses to fail or rethink their basic strategies.

There are other futures.

There's a shitload of salvage to be had there.

If you had a few boys working on the quiet you could make yourself a nice chunk of cash out of each of them.

Hell, if you were smart you'd find the owners and charge them for the privilege of doing so.

I frigging hope so. A few months ago I was getting frequent visions of The Future, and I decided that prophecy is a HIGHLY overrated gift.

The ugly part is, we might be in the future that came closest to getting it right.   :lulz:

No, I'm not talking about economics, or the demise of brick-and-mortar shops. I'm saying that indoor shopping malls are relics of the 20th century, stamped with the mark of obsolescence. They are icons of a byegone era destined for erasure from everything but photographs, like jell-O salad and the Salton Sea Resort.

I predict that within the next 20 years, most of the remaining indoor malls in temperate regions will either be opened up and integrated into extended shopping districts that merge with the surrounding neighborhoods, or abandoned/demolished.

We already have something like that in Tucson, in the legal district.  An open-air mall hidden from the surrounding blocks, which looks really nice from the inside, and is almost invisibe from the outside.  You would think this would kill it, but they do a hell of a lot of business, as they are smack between all the parking garages, the courthouses, and the convention center, and locals love it because it seems like an organic part of the downtown area.

It's a little weird because indoor malls were an absolutely integral part of my teenagerhood... seeing them relegated to the past is another little reminder that I am getting old, that my childhood was a long time ago, and that everything is transient.
