Not sure that makes anything a capital

They are also building a huge outdoor mixed use complex next store

Office & Retail Space in King Of Prussia PA | Shopping Center | Retail Mall

Sadly this complex dilutes some of the DT shopping for Philly, IMHO a bad thing


How do these malls compare to the one in Edmonton, Alberta?

Its definitely SoCal and the Los Angles Metro. Although we dont lead in malls per capita (as we have an outrageous population). Im sure we lead in individual high end boutiques, outlets, bizarres, and malls. Seems theres a mall every 5 exits or so off any given freeway within the Southern California area.

dubious, unless they have a US Gov't toilet fixture store. doesn't show up in any of the top 10 lists I've seen for profitability, size or number of visitors.

I don't buy that malls are passe rhetoric. On a hot summer day the mall is my favorite place to take a walk.
