I remember that mall being a busy place when I was a kid. Hate to see it go.
Same here! I moved to Apex and thought it was a HUGE mall! (I moved from Wayne County, so anything was huge next to Berkley Mall! lol) I loved the sunken food court! (I swear a piece of greasy pizza from Brothers' was what put me in labor with my daughter!) I worked at Belk over Christmas one year. I have walked that mall many times, sometimes pushing a stroller, sometimes holding the hand of one of my kids. I don't do much in-store shopping these days, and if I do, it's rarely at a mall. My mother gave me a Belk gift card for Christmas (she does most of her shopping there), so I'd better get over there soon before we lose that one too!

I see I'm not the only one who found out how small Berkeley Mall really was compared to other malls!
Either that or convert into a "lifestyle center" and make it into an outdoor mall like North Hills/outdoor portion of Southpoint.
But, it's such a nice place for a safe, clean 1.1 mile walk around the inside in any weather. Place was LOADED with seniors this afternoon. Food Court, coffee place gets some business from them.

A couple walkers isn't going to sustain a failing mall.
tear it all down and build an 800,000 s.f. Pizza-Mall, inviting all the best of NY and NJ Pizzerias to come down and set up shop.
