whoever owns this mall has a low opinion of commerce, and of humanity. some of the stores are really good, but the overall layout is badly designed, and i can tell it hasn't been popular since the eighties. if this mall completely closes down in five years, nobody will be surprised. if a place like this wants to survive, it needs community support on every level, and its individual businesses need to have a real stake in its success. if i were a stockholder in Richmond Mall, i'd sell, like right now. if i were its CEO, i'd find a business model that doesn't suck. from the standpoint of a business owner who grew up in Richmond, i can shake my head and whisper shameful thoughts. if i were driving through Richmond and looking for a nice, walkable shopping center, i'd keep driving -- maybe to Dayton or Muncie. don't waste your time...

Bath & Body Works, American Eagle, Nirvana, Journey's, Dunham's Sports Store, Finish Line, Shoebilee(?I think that's what it's called๐), the Cell Phone store (literally has phone case choices for Every phone! This guy is Super Nice!), Claire's, Christopher & Banks, Maurices, the delicious pretzel place, GNC, Hibbits, & of course the anchor...
