Mall of NH isn’t doing great either. I went there to walk (I’m on maternity leave with a newborn and it was too cold to walk outside with him) while I was visiting my parents in Manchvegas. I had worked at Sears as a teenager and actually had nice memories there. It was sad to see the empty storefronts. Macy’s still felt vibrant, Old Navy was busy, and there were some nice new stores, including one featuring the work of local craftspeople, but overall, the place felt run down. I was still happy to be able to have a place to walk indoors, but seeing the place where I learned how to have a real job be so sad was bittersweet.

I was there maybe in August? (EDIT: actually, it was the last week in June - I just realized I was there to pick up a suit at Men's Warehouse for my mom's funeral) It seemed super active. The food court was nuts, and the stores seemed busy. My wife had never been and she said it was the busiest mall she had seen in decades, almost like we had stepped back in time.

Maybe it was just the time you went? Or the time we went I guess?
