"Again whats wrong with a $9.99 shoe store"

It doesn\'t sell the things that the majority of people over there want anymore. There\'s nothing inherently wrong with it or government housing, or any of the things you speak of, please stop generalizing. There\'s room for all of it in this world, but people who are moving in to those neighborhoods, or have for the last few years want more than what 9.99 shoes have to offer, they probably pay more than $100 for most pairs of shoes, and there\'s nothing wrong with that either. I looked in the Garden Oaks and Timbergrove and those areas over a year ago, even then you couldn\'t find much that was habitable, meaning no major defects like massive foundation issues, that was less than $300,000 or so. Please don\'t generalize and say that people don\'t like government housing, they just don\'t always want to live by it, not that your brother is in a gang, you can\'t deny the fact that they tend to attract a different element than $300k homes do. Your parents should be happy someone is interested in cleaning up the neighborhood and making it an even better, safer place to live. And no matter how many people say it, we have all been there, there are plenty of nefarious people roaming NW Mall, the Galleria too, the difference is the Galleria has more money generated to pay for better security, maybe NW mall area will now too, once they clean it up.

I live within walking distance of Northwest Mall, and go all the time (usually with my six year old boy). I have never seen an unsavory element, or felt uncomfortable, and always find great deals on menswear at Macy\'s (nee Foley\'s). I would certainly welcome improvements, but the only thing
that bothers me now is driving around SRO (\'cause of all the drunks).

this isn\'t exactly true; people LOVE one-stop outings. the "mall concept" is CHANGING, in that it is providing more entertainment-based units combined with retail stores. you\'ll see almost upscale restaurants, movie theaters and super-sized arcades along with clothing, and soft good stores.
and lest we not forget -- malls are the reason everything is so homogenous and "vanilla" -- malls destroyed boutiques and mom and pops a looong time ago...

I believe it\'s time NW should undergo a major renovation-Bring out some of the finest stores, and move them down here! What I like to see here at NW is some good stores that caters to this area, Lifestyle centers are getting popular-which is where shop, eat, play, do business, and live-all in one location. I like to see a Target, Barnes & Noble, Circuit City, and a Movie Tavern-In Addition to Macy\'s & Palais Royal. How about a Staples & Ross. Or even a W Hotel. It\'s about they\'re doing something to NW Mall.
