And I couldn't tell you the last time I went into the actual Cortana Mall
I went to the Dillard's clearance center a couple of weeks ago and got 4 nice, button-down shirts (CK, Cremieux, etc) for about $8-$9 a piece. Strolling through the actual mall part is depressing, though. Only a little over half of the spaces are occupied. I grew-up going to that mall, so it's sad to see. Some company bought the whole mall last year for a measly $6million.

Sounds like I'm the idiot here.

I have some not-so-fond memories of being dragged around there as a child by my mom. You won't see me shed any tears over its demise. But it's true what Chris Rock said about malls. Every town has two malls. The white mall, and what USED to be the white mall.

I like the clearance center. I also like the Macy's, but like you, I avoid walking into the actual mall. It's too depressing. As a kid, I loved that one entrance that had the arcade, toy store, and book store, but all of that is gone now.

I went to the Trash for Treasure sale last weekend and found a nice blazer for $4. I had it dry-cleaned and am wearing it to a job interview this evening

The Entergy site on Government st. is in the process of being given to the RDA for use as its main office, possible retail, and possibly nola/br train station.

Westmoreland shopping center is owned by Catholic High. It is mostly a dump but LA Key Academy is doing some major renovations in the back.
