Stores like Chicos and Coldwater Creek are fine for some things, but often their clothes target the over 60 age group, they rarely have dresses.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-552723854635747246.post-45112020400310130132010-01-29T08:26:48.192-05:002010-01-29T08:26:48.192-05:00i can't wait for more froyo locations. i crave...i can't wait for more froyo locations. i crave that stuff, and this city barely has any tcby's. it's about time. hope yoforia's good!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-552723854635747246.post-193046901161946672010-01-26T21:30:48.527-05:002010-01-26T21:30:48.527-05:00True Religion is a HUGE slap in the face to the ma...True Religion is a HUGE slap in the face to the mall. Terrible quality denim. Terrible styled jeans. While we're at it, let's open an Umbro store, or a store that sells just Hypercolor t-shirts. I'm sure Teva would love to open a store at South Park. Gap makes better jeans than True Religion. Walk the 3 stores over, and save yourself $200. Does the Ralph Lauren store sell RRL jeans? Those would be the only nice jeans in the mall.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-552723854635747246.post-65117451460965713672010-01-26T20:15:07.374-05:002010-01-26T20:15:07.374-05:00Sometimes it is just because the stores mentioned ...Sometimes it is just because the stores mentioned are too narrowly focused or just rude. If I went in Bob Ellis after work, they never looked at me. You see, I work in a field where I might get "dirty". So I dress accordingly. Jeans, Frye boots. Nice but casual. If I cam e in dressed for going out and fresh. I didn't have trouble, they flocked to me. Busy was never an issue, so I took my money elsewhere. So a downturn does hurt, but sometimes certain businesses were asking for it.Alyssenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-552723854635747246.post-70188342330341480242010-01-26T18:54:41.322-05:002010-01-26T18:54:41.322-05:00Southpark was better when it had Woolworths anyway...Southpark was better when it had Woolworths anywayAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-552723854635747246.post-36656473393093933242010-01-26T18:24:42.763-05:002010-01-26T18:24:42.763-05:007 For All Mankind is opening a store in South Park...7 For All Mankind is opening a store in South Park.

However, these specific closings seem to be more a reflection on these ill-managed companies than they are of the mall and Charlotte in general. That they were replaced by lower end stores is simply a smart decision by Simon Properties to keep storefronts open and traffic flowing in tough times. Besides, these are small filler stores. The anchors are the ones to watch.<br /><br />Now if Nordstrom closed and was replaced with a Burlington Coat Factory, I think we'd have cause for concern...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
