GTKY: Design a Mall

[sammichcat]

If you got to design your perfect mall and making money wasn't the priority:
What stores would you have to have?
What restaurants would be in the food court?

Stores: Anthropologie, Disney store, Lego store, Sephora, The body shop, The dollar store, World Market, Target, Macy's, Dillard's, JCPenney, Barnes and Noble, Charming Charlie, and an ice rink, and movie theater.

Food court: Subway, cheap Chinese food place, Auntie Anne's, fast food Indian place (we had one at my college that was to die for), local roast beef chain, Panera, Steak n Shake, Dippin' Dots, Pizza Hut, IHOP, Taco Cabana

I had to read this a few times over. At first I thought you meant spending my money wasn’t any issue, so I could shop wherever. That would be a fun list of shops to create. But alas, if making money wasn’t a priority for me as the owner of the mall, perhaps I’d still go down that route just so I could look at all the pretties.

Shops that spring to mind: Chanel, Prada, Sephora, and some Australian labels like Manning Cartel, Cue, Peter Alexander (cute pjs), Ugg, and Seed Heritage.

Food wise: good Japanese, good but casual Italian, Indian, and a deluxe sandwich bar with a million types of bread.

Ah daydreaming about being able to buy a sandwich that’s ready to go. Pregnancy rules out heaps of lunch options on work days for me.

Stores: Marshall’s, homegoods, old navy, Nordstrom, Target, New York and Co., ulta/Sephora, Francesco’s, hobby lobby.

Food: Chick-fil-A, Jersey Mike’s, McAlisters, Chinese, auntie Annie’s, smoothie king, juice bar.

That’s all I can think of off top of my head.

Stores: Marshall's, Winners, Ardene, Sephora, Bluenotes, Chapters, Fairweather, Lids, Reitmans, Urban Planet, Walmart, Bulk Barn, Laura Secord (A lot of those I think are Canadian only stores)

Food: Tim Hortons, Guacamole (same thing as Chipotle), Subway, A&W, Second Cup, Chinese food, bun place, pretzel place, there's something else but I can't remember the name because I've only been to it in Toronto and Montreal.
