You are entitled to your preferences and opinions as I am to mine. I enjoy a more cohesive and charming neighborhoods to add to the ambiance of shopping. Also that is not limited to Europe and the northeastern US. Shop at the malls of Dallas to your hearts conetent, the point I was addressing is malls don't really set Dallas apart from anywhere else except perhaps for the quantity of them that Dallas has. One could have a simalar mall experiece in the suburbs west of Boston, Westchester County, NY, Scottsdale, AZ, or Orange County, CA.
NorthPark Center is a upscale mall in Dallas, TX. It was built in 1965 as the largest climate-controlled retail establishment in the world. NorthPark Center is the most popular shopping center in North Texas with over 27 million visitors a year; it’s one of the top five shopping destinations in the USA. Northpark has annual sales of more than $1 billion dollars. H&M will open a store at NorthPark this year.
NorthPark Center had its first expansion in 2005. It increased the size of the mall to 2 million sq ft. NorthPark's interior hasn't changed since it was built in 1965. The expansion matched the original design.

Yo, I used to live in Dallas but I never got the chance to explore any outdoor shopping areas. Malls are very generic, no matter how impressive they can be, they'll still be a mall, something almost every city with more than 75,000 people in its area has, nothing extraordinarily special. Can I see some pictures of something that isn't mall related?

They are not building malls in Dallas-Fort Worth anymore. They are building life style centers.
They built one in Garland, Cedar Hill, Allen, and Fairview.
I don't mean the age of the mall itself. I'm just saying those pics make it seem very bland and ho-hum. I'm NOT saying it is any of those things...I'm just saying the pics make it look that way.

Well, in all actuality, those are technically malls. Outdoor malls.
I know, that's what they call them now.
