Descriptive Essay On The Mall

To keep a local suburban regional shopping mall from reaching its decline, there are a few things that must be done to keep your mall relevant in today’s society. One must spend time and money during the maturity phase to keep with today’s trends. Getting more or newer department or anchor stores may help to draw in business. Then fill the other empty spaces with specialty stores, offering products that consumers can’t get anywhere else. Another option for managers is to find a niche in the community that will draw consumers in.

In “Enclosed. Encyclopedic. Endured: The Mall of America,” David Guterson’s description concerning the Mall of America researches into numerous surfaces that are entrenched throughout the mall both physically and psychologically.

The North Hanover Mall is an average shopping center with various stores and small attractions. Typically, the mall is not over-crowded; however, during the evenings and weekends it is well-traveled. There are the average chain stores such as JCPenny’s, Dick’s Sporting Goods, Hallmark, and Bath and Body Works. Likewise, there are some smaller, lesser known stores, for example, a few nail and hair salons, cafes, a pizza shop, and a sports apparel store. In general, there is a diverse mix of people shopping, from ethnicity to ages and group sizes. The night I choose to do my social observation the mall was much busier than I had anticipated. There was a Halloween event and an antique car show; both circumstances brought more individuals than usual into the shopping complex.

Another internal conflict in Gary paulsen's story is Terry is embarrassed and upset that his father has PTSD and that he has moments where that PTSD triggers and there is a scene in public. In the mall is the main time that this internal conflict happens is when Terry and his father are in the mall. Terry and his father are at the mall, suddenly Terry hears people laughing and realizes that something is going on so he goes over and see his father lying on the ground having a flashback and he is embarrassed and ashamed of what he just witnessed. "Terry sat in the car next to his father just wanting to disappear." This text evidence shows that terry is ashamed of his father's PTSD because it sometimes embarrasses him in public.

I conducted a phone interview with, Joseph Hladiuk the store manager of the Macys in Robinson Township. Joseph has been the working at Macy’s for over 15 years and has been the store manager for about 5 years now. As the store manager, Joe is directly involved with some of the Human Resource functions and HR is a key component to their business because the organization thrives off of its employees.

The stone streets were a veil at this time of night, with who knows how many menacing horrors hiding behind the curtain. The lingering gas hovering over the ground was timid, dispersing at the sight of anyone who strayed near. The moon tried to pry into the city’s shadows, but it was too thick to cut. The buildings were nothing but faded memories: gray, eroded structures that once boasted splendor and beauty. Street rats, both rodent and human, scuttled about in the alleyways, knocking assortments over and fleeing if anyone walked past, just like the gas. A dog barked in the distance. Car horns blared on 5th Avenue nearby. Tank sighed. No place like home.

In this essay I will talk about the most enjoyable place I have ever visited. This place is known as the Mall of America. My family also travels a lot, so there were quite a few places for me to choose from. I have been to a lot of places like Mount. Rushmore, Crazy Horse, and about 14 of the 50 states. One place I wish I could have gone to was Disneyland since it appears like an incredible place, but I wasn't born when my family journeyed there.

What shopping trends do you foresee over the next 10 years? How might these trends affect suburban regional shopping malls?

Is the death of American malls avoidable? Based on the article “Amazon.com is a 21st Century deal with the devil” written by Amy Koss of the Los Angeles Times, websites that sell clothing and other merchandise may impact American malls and other stores but it could be avoidable. Modern day stores rarely have up to fashion clothing or accessories that sooth the teen of this era. Malls have to step up the game against online stores by getting up to date fashion styles. Most stores like Rolex, GUCCI, Supreme, and other famous brands should be in more local stores to attract people. Most Designer brands are not in most local areas. A more common kid friendly brand such as Supreme would be the easiest one way ticket to coolsville. Another important

My story is set at the mall and focuses on one particular event that occurred while I was with friends a couple of years ago. Southcenter mall has many different entrances but the main entrance who is the east side has three sets of double doors which are painted white and there is glass in the middle. Once you come to the first thing you see to your right is the huge entrance to JC. Penney and the smell of fries from Potato Corner which is a small food stand in front of JC. Penney. There are people sitting in front Potato Corner and to the right, there is a local library and bath and body store which is located right across of the library. Inside there are a couple of people smelling the soup and fragrances. When you walk to your right

In Miami, the South Beach Mall is known to have a big amount of visitors. It is a very crowded place with hardly any space. Packed hallways and crowed store which are filled with people. My experience there will help me explain how populated the mall was during that time. During its busiest time of the year it is outrageous.

When you mention New York to anyone, they automatically think about Times Square. This beautiful place with skyscrapers, Central Park, and a unique transportation system. However, if you were to ask me what I think about New York; I believe the skyscrapers block the sun, Central park is just a regular park for dogs, and the subway trains rarely run consistently especially in the mornings. I have lived in New York for 18 years, and I have yet to understand what everyone likes about the “ Big Red Apple.”

What gives me more fear is to be in a bank and there is a robbery. Let men enter with guns and start firing at people. The bank is big, the employees are sitting behind the five-foot windows with fear of being robbed, and there are two guards at each corner to keep the bank safe. There's a vault with money underneath. I went into the bank one day with my mother, and I saw three men entering with masks without putting on, and I was getting nervous because it could be a robbery. Ten minutes later when the guards left for a second the three men put on their masks and took out their weapons and started firing at the ceiling.

I used to like to shop. Clothes, food, shoes, books…pretty much anything. I enjoyed wandering my way aimlessly through the mall just seeing what there was to see. A few year ago I began to notice a strange phenomenon that, after extensive experimentation, I am now certain applies only to me. It started out so innocently, just a little “excuse me” followed by hand reaching in front of me to grab a box of Cheerios off the shelf. I would just smile and step to the left or right depending upon which direction the obviously starving shopper was jamming their way in front of me. I mean, if you have to cut in front of someone for a box of Cheerios you must be starving, right? As time passed, it became more apparent to me that this was not just a random occurrence, because no matter where I was SOMEONE would appear. I began to have the belief that perhaps I was magnetic and thereby attracted others to my vicinity. What else could possibly explain how this could happen to me at every shopping trip? As I shared my theory with others, it became clear that they thought I was off my rocker and were certain I was over exaggerating the stories for comic effect. Really? How convenient that back to school shopping time arrived which created the perfect scenario to test my hypothesis once again.
