Parking can easily be moved or rebuilt. This is a waste of land that can be put to much better use as something else, and I think it eventually will be. That same argument applies to most destination malls, yet they've been able to infill parking or plan to do it without any Christmas problems.

If a company wants to build a chain hotel or luxury apartments on that land and Simon gets $$$ for it, they're not going to say no.

I think it's simply parking on the lot just feels easier to people. Many garages are built like a confusing maze, and getting to your car in the lot can feel quicker, even if it's really not. But if you don't give people much a choice, they'll park in the garage, especially if it's still free.
