Cornell OTR: New Mall Helps Inspire "Attitude of Community"

New Mall Helps Inspire "Attitude of Community"

The Pyramid Mall is dead. Long live the Shops at Ithaca Mall!

Everyone's favorite (only) local mall officially changed its name to "attempt to build a stronger attitude of community", but at least one local thinks it is merely a scheme to attract new businesses that are "not shoe stores."

What can you expect from the new (same) mall? Well how about a desire to make the mall more energy-efficient! How about a new kick ass 14 screen regal theatre? How about online printable coupons?

My Prediction: The Shops at Ithaca Mall will inspire the community to band together as they never have before and shop for shoes at one of the four shoe stores (Payless, The Shoe Deptartment, Champs and Starting Line.) As long as they keep that store that only sells stuff made from alpacca fur, I'll be a happy camper.

An alpaca is like a llama, and they have very soft fur. Across from champs, and next to the GNC is a store with the name "andes gifts" or something like that. They sell alpaca fur blankets and sweaters. Posted 08/10/2007 11:41 AMReply

Um, clearly you are out of it. Payless has been out of business at the "Pyramid Mall" since last fall. Posted 08/10/2007 8:01 PMReply

I apologize, the store is still listed on the website of the mall. (I mean the shops at Ithaca mall)However, if I am not mistaken, didn't they open a new shoe store where payless used to be? I think they did, I just don't remember the name. Posted 08/11/2007 1:50 PMReply
