On a historical note, this is just a page in the death of brick and mortar retail outlets.I have traveled the entire continental and have heard and seen many cases of mall meeting their demise. From NY to WA. Population shifts to newer suburban areas and mismanagement on the part of mall owners results in the loss of floor traffic and sales.
In WNY I can of 3 locations that shut with no correlation to the retail theft. McKinley Mall, Boulevard Mall and Main place Mall. The buildings have been tried to repurpose their use but to know no avail. The Malls followed the demographic shift from urban centers to outskirts of suburbia. When the populations saw a decrease in disposable income the Malls moved once again to a better resource pool.
Retail consumers no longer want to travel half a block to fill their perceived needs and delivery to the door is the way of future sales.
