It depends on the location as well. The Puente Hills mall, which was shown in the clip, is competing against nearby malls such as Westfield Santa Anita and West Covina. The Santa Anita one recently opened a 99 Ranch Market and is packed on the weekends.

Not a bad suggestion but the issue lies with zoning laws and being able to convert them. There is a lot of red tape for converting them

@guerralg63 well keep in mind the location also plays a factor. Mitsuwa in Torrance used to be near the US Toyota HQ since many of their employees went there for lunch. When Toyota moved to Texas, Mitsuwa relocated to the Del Amo Mall.

@tuandang2947 not really. Up to before Covid there were restaurants and shops still there. 24 Hour Fitness, Macy, Soup Plantation. Covid killed it mostly and only Round 1 remains

@guerralg63 nope. It's like Vons and Albertsons.
