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.
