Doesn’t that perfectly summarize the destruction of genuine culture caused by car dependency. Destroy any sense of local, community centred commerce and instead shepherd people in their cars from far and wide to massive indoor commercialized spaces owned by corporations peddling brands. Truly depressing.
@@richardperez109 well to be fair, in some places, you kind of need that, like in the south east and southwest where its blazing hot 7 months of the year, too hot to pleasantly walk. and in the northeast and midwest where its below freezing half the year...I guess they have their place
@@richardperez109 Well, aren’t you just full of judgemental woke blame. Are we supposed to be honored that you took time away from complaining about urban housing “crisis” to crap on people living their best afordable alternative?
That was the imputus for malls back in the 70’s. Today, walkable cities are pricing themselves out of business. The taxes and regulations are just too high, and the woke idea to tolerate crime destroys the luxury biz that could afford the rent.
That’s how Malls like in East Asia for several years now. It has everything, while meeting friends and families. There’s even a church, gyms. etc. It’s like creating a miniature city within a city, where people doesn’t need to go out. The three biggest Malls in World are in the Philippines.
yeah i watch some IRL streamers in Asia and all of their malls are miles ahead of anything you'd see in the western world. Like there's actual stores instead of empty for lease spaces.. Plus like u mentioned they seem to include everything. Property developers over there seem to actually know what they're doing unlike in USA. If I had a say i'd start turning unused malls into living spaces and u could even keep a few stores to gain the business of living residents
To add, unlike America, the mallsin Asia are actually affordable relative to people's median disposable income. In my country the dining court next to a fancy movie theater in the mall costs $4 a meal on average. That's cheaper than our street food.
@ yeah inflation is ridiculous in the US. Even in some parts of Europe it’s terrible like beyond “tourist prices”. Nobody should be paying 6-7 euros/dollars for a coffee but yet here we are
I’ve seen a mall transform to survive and adapt to the desires of the modern consumer. Annapolis Mall (in Annapolis, Maryland, United States) has a gym, public library, and animal shelter. There’s a focus on bringing quality restaurants there as well. All the big department stores are gone. It is drastically different from the mall I knew as a kid.
So the US is finally catching up to other parts of the world. Go to any country in Asia and half of the mall is food. Supermarket, take out, and food courts in the lower level, mid-level restaurants at the mid level and fine dining at the top floors. They've been this way for the last fifty years.
@@JohnSkyLeythey did malls right in Thailand. One Bangkok was based off the Japanese style department store with the entire basement floor being the affordable food court and higher class restaurants scattered on the upper levels. It was somewhere I spent 3 hours walking around, eat, and not feel bored.
That is why Americana at Brand in Glendale , CA has done well for years. It is a unique experience and it is packed on nights, weekends and summertime. It combines the high end shopping, movie theaters, upscale living and dining of all ranges.
It is nice to see a fellow Glendaler. I have been there 18 years ago. I love Glendale Mall - Galeria because it was the perfect dating place for me and my girlfriend in college. The food court there had the best sushi and many more options.
In Malaysia and other Southeast Asian countries, restaurants (even fine dining ones) have been a feature of malls for decades. So this not something new at all for us here in Southeast Asia.
I'm not much of a shopper, however, I go to malls just to eat out and I often end up buy a little something from one of the stores. Very smart move on the part of my local mall to add Texas Roadhouse
Different experiences in general, not just shopping or dining. As a parent, if one mall has a good children’s indoor playground, I’m more likely to go there than somewhere else. Especially during the rainy season and blazing summer months.
Malls and banking two things the usa is behind. In my European country the last floor is always restaurants usually fast food, buffets and mid level restaurants with sit down space,then clothes stores ,first floor has always a super/hypermarket,in my city one we have headdres,gym,arcade, coffee shop in every floor,tech stores,pet stores,furnish stores,pharmacy,knick knack stores,shoe stores,sports stores,travel agency, telecommunications,kids adventure park,jewelry stores,lingerie stores,kids toys,cinema ect
Shopping malls are the conglomerates corporations use perfectly to target people's two most important addictions at the same time in the same place...shopping and eating...simple!! It's a win-win strategy for corporations.
Honestly this isn't even new in America, it was just more exclusive in upscale areas. Now it's bringing it's attention to the forefront in more common locations.
Makes sense. Malls should be a place to have experiences and create memories with friends and family. They should be more than place to amass more material possessions.
Basically malls need to diversify their spaces. It can’t only be retail and fast food. Some are even doing real estate within the malls. The traditional brick and mortar option is also more expensive to start up so dying malls are a great option since they already have most of the initial cost of investment ready to go
outside the US, people go to the mall for almost everything. entertainment, religion, or shopping. its a goto destination. go to any mall area in APAC. people will go to mall for everything. fastfood, restaurant, highend shop, even banking. even some places in EMEA. These mall management should go out more often. even movie theater experience, they elevated to the next level.
I use to go to this one mall that eventually shut down it's food court to make space for a sporting goods store . It turned into a ghost town .The shops that have street accessibility are doing well. The shops and movie theatre inside are quiet .My hair dresser moved out of there 10 years ago and the space has been empty since . People like a place where they can meet for a coffee , shop and grab a bite to eat and , maybe shop some more.I walked through there 2 months ago and it was a creepy unsettling vibe.
This situation has existed in Japan, China, South Korea, and many East Asian and Middle Eastern countries for decades. In comparison, many places in the United States are not as global as many developed regions. We need more Americans to learn foreign languages and cultures to better understand how to advance ourselves. To some extent, the development and lifestyles in many parts of the U.S. have stagnated for decades due to a lack of globalized visions and education.
In Singapore, restaurants and food stalls have become more and more important. With the rise of e-commerce and cheaper shopping option by the neighbouring Malaysia due to the weaker currency rate of Malaysia ringgit, retail sales has been decreasing in Singapore. Restaurants and food stalls are one of the more profitable option for malls to rent out their units as people in Singapore tend to cook less at home and eat their meals outside of their homes.
In South Florida, many city centers are being developed. These centers feature high-rise luxury apartments starting on the second floor, with shops, restaurants, gyms, and other amenities located on the first floor all around the building. Additionally, there are long nature walk paths surrounding large canals. Personally, I don't like malls. They tend to be too crowded, parking can be a hassle, and dragging bags long distances is not convenient for me. I prefer online shopping for the best deals and ease of convenience.
My mall has added restaurants and a gym, and it is the busiest it's been in a long time. Funny enough, if you think about it, these changes are in line with what the mall was supposed to be about, and that was a community center. Add in apartments on a second or third floor and it would be what the original creator envisioned.
In mexico pretty much, all malls have an ancor thing, for example a supermarket, or banks, doctors appointments, and even some have residential buildings to keep flow all the time, a restaurant by itself don't sustain a mall
People have realised that they value time with family & friends eating / drinking out and would rather spend money on decent food rather than fast fashion crap and purchases they probably don't need or really want.
I don't think it's the restaurants as much as it is the grocery stores that keep people coming to my local mall, plenty of restaurants have come and gone since I was a teenager, but the 3 grocery stores and more Asian based shops reinvigorated the mall's popularity
Bored, rich people eat at high end malls now. Ladies who lunch, business lunches, retired rich. Buy a $5,000 Chanel handbag, show it off over a pretentious caviar, champagne lunch to your friends. ……..Calabasas Commons has Porto Via. 🤷🏼♂️🤷🏼♂️🤷🏼♂️
Shopping malls in the US have evolved into more than just shopping destinations-they’re now lifestyle hubs offering a full experience. With grocery stores, restaurants, gyms, clinics, banks, and even entertainment centers, malls have become places where people can shop, dine, and socialize all in one trip. Restaurants play a key role by turning a simple shopping trip into a social gathering, encouraging visitors to stay longer and enjoy the overall atmosphere. It’s a perfect blend of convenience, dining, and entertainment!
The only problem is that malls around North America have become visually drab, soul draining, and boring inside over the past 10-15yrs. Nothing but white on white on white, looking unfinished, and with stores that all look exactly the same, with zero character or visual interest.
The malls should always have like a bowling alley, a movie theater, restaurants. People need places to go to and enjoy. Not just only shopping. ONLINE SHOPPING was/is killing most malls.
Restaurants aren't enough of a reason to go to a mall at least for me, especially shopping because it's way easier to get stuff online. The only time I go to the mall if at all is because there's a particular movie theatre there playing a show that you cannot see at other places. In most cases, I don't have to go to the mall for that. What I will say is a malls are becoming something new to the Gen Z and Gen A crowds in that they are the most efficient social group I've seen to date where they plan to be together but they don't want to go far, that's where malls come in. And if that is the trend only the major cities will see upgrades and work put into their malls to be even bigger and better so they can do everything in one spot for an experience that's offline.
Probably doesn't hurt that Sr. citizens are the cohort that lived with malls, used malls as walking areas, and are the group most likely to be able to afford the higher end shops,
It would be in the best interest of Malls if they converted to Entertainment Centers that contain Restaurants, Bowling, Movie Theaters & Live Show Venues as these industries are discretionary and they could benefit from each other for their survival
It is impossible to support restaurants in the U.S. because of their expectation of insane tips and all sorts of charges, including "employee wellness fee," donation, etc. etc. etc. I don't feel sorry for their collapse in the U.S.
Thank god for CNBC. With the world on fire and with humanity edging ever closer to self immolation, it's comforting to know that you're doing the kind of hard-hitting journalism necessary to answer questions like 'why restaurants are important to shopping malls.'
There is a word for that “european sensibility” -snobbery. The Malls are where high priced euro luxury brands have their stores. Why wouldn’t their patrons have a place to dine when they shop?
Not European but i agree. Malls are too chaotic and closed in to make for an open space dinig environment. At least in an urban centre you woukd get fresh air and the traffic isnt always constant.
Food Panda, Grab Food, Uber Eats 😮 Malls should instead focus on experience like roller coaster, bowling, ice skating, basketball, volleyball etc. Things that can't be delivered through an App at the comfort of your doorstep. Why is there no indoor basketball tournament in malls in the basketball capital of Asia is beyond me? 😅
They better hire good cooks then. Since not like before when their canteen is just optional they hire just anyone to throw food into pot with no recipe at all.
I think that Toronto based malls and restaurants cannot relate to New Jerseys success. I think Buffalos Niagara has made more progress than us here in Canada.
not true some cities/towns still have walkable downtown business districts/strip malls granted I live in south east Massachusetts where there are several major malls within a 45 min drive of my house including over the border in New Hampshire Mall at Rockingham Park & Pheasant Lane Mall in Salem and Nashua NH respectively
Malls are horribly designed because they force you to need a car which makes people not want to come when it's the best time. This video isn't going to age well.
You mean American malls finally understand and copying what Asian mall been doing for decades. But in Asia lots of the food stall are good and cheap. Here it’s expensive but average food.
Ok, but this isn’t really a new thing. I remember going to prom, celebrating a birthday or doing something fancy, we always wanted to go to an upscale restaurant in or around the mall.
People saying copy asia is being naive. Youre dismissing the cultural and fundemental moral differences between citizens of Asia and America. Same reason why japan you can go to apple store and have all phones, macbook, etc not even connected to a theft wire and could literally walk out with it if one intended. Hence why it's been all over media the influx of black Americans travelling to Asian countries and causing social mischief and vandalism etc
without walkable cities, malls become the walkable city
I don't know whether to laugh or cry about it. It is really really stupid.
Doesn’t that perfectly summarize the destruction of genuine culture caused by car dependency. Destroy any sense of local, community centred commerce and instead shepherd people in their cars from far and wide to massive indoor commercialized spaces owned by corporations peddling brands. Truly depressing.

Malls in Asia and their layout are very efficient. In North America, they have to accommodate for their f a t a s s es.
I’ve seen a mall transform to survive and adapt to the desires of the modern consumer.
Annapolis Mall (in Annapolis, Maryland, United States) has a gym, public library, and animal shelter. There’s a focus on bringing quality restaurants there as well. All the big department stores are gone. It is drastically different from the mall I knew as a kid.

America should take notes on how malls gets run in Asia.. specially on Philippines, Indonesia, Singapore , China and Japan.
You forgot Thailand
and Thailand, the malls over there have always been impressive.

American Dream is ironically the most “Asian” like mall in America. Malls represent the city
It's great to see so many restaurant options! 🍴 Dining at malls has become so much more enjoyable! 😍
It's great to see retailers are thriving in the US.
That is why Americana at Brand in Glendale , CA has done well for years. It is a unique experience and it is packed on nights, weekends and summertime. It combines the high end shopping, movie theaters, upscale living and dining of all ranges.

There are so many places to enjoy shopping and dining together 🍴👍🏻
In Malaysia and other Southeast Asian countries, restaurants (even fine dining ones) have been a feature of malls for decades. So this not something new at all for us here in Southeast Asia.

I thought this has been the norm with all malls everywhere😅
Different experiences in general, not just shopping or dining. As a parent, if one mall has a good children’s indoor playground, I’m more likely to go there than somewhere else. Especially during the rainy season and blazing summer months.
I agree and our mall has a big arcade and an indoor play area for the kids. They need entertainment too not just shopping and dining.
There is nothing like a well-designed American mall! I can highly recommend Aventura Mall near Miami :)
Heres the thing, most malls in the Philippines has goverment offices and they are taking advantage on it
Malls and banking two things the usa is behind.

Malls in Arabian countries often provide rooms for prayer and area of cleansing before prayer. It would be cool to see that incorporated in America.

Not everyone wants to shop while hanging out with friends & family, but literally everyone can grab a bite and/or drink. Simple as that.

making what up?
@ one minute malls are dying next minute they are rising. It is a dying market.
Like Carlin said, Americans love shopin & eatin
why? they can eat and shop at same place
They're basically taking a page from Asia's mall book
Food courts have in shopping malls since the beginning of time.
They should have grocery stores in the mall too.
I don’t know if it’s my european sensibility, but to me the idea of eating in a mall is insane. What a drab setting
Beats the hell out of being outside in any America city.
There is a word for that “european sensibility” -snobbery.
The Malls are where high priced euro luxury brands have their stores. Why wouldn’t their patrons have a place to dine when they shop?
The middle class deserves an enjoyable place to have meals and shop worry free. You are just an elitist. Malls are awesome
Not European but i agree. Malls are too chaotic and closed in to make for an open space dinig environment. At least in an urban centre you woukd get fresh air and the traffic isnt always constant.
How's the economy doing in Europe.
What does your sensibility tell you. 😂
Lifestyle / Outdoor malls have been doing this for decades.
Food Panda, Grab Food, Uber Eats 😮 Malls should instead focus on experience like roller coaster, bowling, ice skating, basketball, volleyball etc. Things that can't be delivered through an App at the comfort of your doorstep. Why is there no indoor basketball tournament in malls in the basketball capital of Asia is beyond me? 😅
To get with the Leisure Activity in the Malls.
They better hire good cooks then. Since not like before when their canteen is just optional they hire just anyone to throw food into pot with no recipe at all.
But, but I though we couldn't afford groceries! 😢😂😅
Basically century city mall in Los Angeles
I think that Toronto based malls and restaurants cannot relate to New Jerseys success. I think Buffalos Niagara has made more progress than us here in Canada.
I went to the mall til my wife hit the wall, now all i do is bawl
I keep procrastinating and that mall is about 8 miles from me 🤦🏾♂️🤣
Like following a piece of cheese🧀
😂
Malls are for countries without a historic city center like in Europe
It's funny to see USA starting to learn how malls work LOL. learn from Asi, espeically Thailand & Singapore.
The US is waaaaaay behind
Stop eating out everyone! Cook your food at home. It’s cheaper and healthier! Don’t support these restaurants!!
It's ok for a change, not recommended regularly
If you have the time to cook (and clean everything after), good for you.
not true some cities/towns still have walkable downtown business districts/strip malls granted I live in south east Massachusetts where there are several major malls within a 45 min drive of my house including over the border in New Hampshire Mall at Rockingham Park & Pheasant Lane Mall in Salem and Nashua NH respectively
