Walked in there today & everything below the main flow has been removed . the food court, all the stores & everything else

Anyone know what happened there?

If you look at the signs in the mall, it says they are doing construction, obviously.

They're putting a JC Penny and I'm not sure what else.

It still looks like the whole bottom has been ripped out.

That's what happens with renovation. I'm sure when you and the Mrs. renovated something it looked like hell for a bit. This is the same thing, on a bigger scale.

I just read that the Food Court & retailers on the bottom were forced to closed by the addition of J C Penney

Whenever I went, the food court was packed. Removing them & the other stores plus the fountain & Santa Claus should do wonders for the remaining stores this holiday season.

How many people will be coming to JC Penney (or the mall) with no food court?

I remember when it was eight floors of mall and the food court was on the eighth floor. Heck, I remember when it was Gimbels.
