adam was being sarcastic.

I guess senior citizens who go to the Centre in winter or on poor weather days for some mall walking will no longer have such an option.

They are building a food court building so there's a place they can hang out at.

I was talking more about the exercise aspect that MsMe had mentioned.

But to the point about having a place in which to hang out, malls do serve as community centres of a sort. Power centres, even those with food courts, have a much more disconnected feel and do not serve that function anywhere near as well in my opinion.

I wouldn't doubt the older people who have trouble walking especially in icy winter conditions will be going to Eastgate to do their shopping now to avoid walking in these kinds of situations. And I wouldn't blame them if I was in their position.
