"Trust me, they'll leave downtown as soon as the Westlake Promenade Expansion/construction is completed"

His holiness speaks the truth - speaking of BR, the latest news from crockerpark.com (Crocker Park being the second "lifestyle center" in Cleveland to be located in Westlake):

Crocker Park Announces New Signings
November 07, 2003

Carla Lally, Leasing Director for Crocker Park announced the signings of GAP, GAP Kids, baby gap, Banana Republic and Sprint.

No sh!t, Sherlock

I'm going to presume you also have a slightly larger downtown residential population within walking distance of you.
Here's the killer though: I live in a neighborhood, not downtown.

dimondpark, it's obviously not "for everyone", but how the hell does that matter? It's for some people, and it's shocking that the entire city of Cleveland can't support just one location.

Houston Galleria had 960,000 sq. ft. of actual rentable retail space prior to expansion. There are huge differences between the higher numbers shown for GROSS LEASABLE AREA and rentable retail space.

???

read the topic yourself
Largest Shopping Malls in the United States
West Edmonton shouldn't have even been brought up in this topic.
if you want to be proud make a thread about Canada's largest malls.
otherwise go mind your own business.

Anyone else think it's funny that the only mass transit infrastructure in the Twin Cities area, prior to the recent construction of LRT, was through their shopping mall?

This is in no relation to largest or biggest. toggie just asked for pics so im providing some pics and info of the nicer(not neccesarily big) shopping centers in Dallas.

even though Galleria is the biggest one in DFW, i and many others in the metroplex aren't usually too fond of it. the more popular malls here are Northpark, Stonebriar, Grapevine Mills, Town East, and a few others. Galleria does have one nice feature though. it has the tallest indoor christmas tree in North America standing 85 feet tall in the middle of the ice skating rink. And on certain events, fireworks will fly and spark from the massive tree.

Stonebriar Centre is more than just a massive mall. it also includes a mini-arena(i think where the stars practice) and ballpark, residences, office buildings, etc. It's a nice little place. It tops on my list, then comes the great grapevine which provides a nice stroll (1.5 miles) if you walk around once. both have incredible and popular AMC theatres too. Stonebriar's whole third floor is the AMC 24. both also have indoor ice skating rinks. Grapevine expanded not too long ago to add a skatepark.


Galleria










Stonebriar Centre

I could give a sh*t about some stupid mall. Besides, I was responding to WIGS statement. Therefore, why don't you READ through these posts before making an ass of yourself?

WIGS:
still, nothing compares to
The West Edmonton Mall



World's Largest Shopping Mall
At 5.3 million square feet (492,000 m2), West Edmonton Mall is the world's largest shopping mall.

Covering 48 city blocks (the size of 115 football fields) West Edmonton Mall is, in itself, a tourist destination.

20 million visitors annually.

take that Mall of America! lol


Who has the mall pride here??
