A Great Mall That Needs An Upscale Department Store To Stand Out.
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 5/21/06
This is the second best mall in Houston. It is like the second Galleria, but without some of the high end stores. The mall for a while seemed to want to go upscale and added some nice stores, but now seems willing to take any store irregardless of how nice it is.
I really miss having Lord & Taylor here. In its place I had hoped for a Nordstrom, Saks, Neimans, or another more unique store. Instead, we get yet another JCPenny (like the city needed another). So, we have a mall that has both upscale (Dillard's, Guess?, Abercrombie, Z-gallerie, etc) and discount stores (JCPenny, Target, Sears). It is a mall that tries to be for everyone.
With Mervyn's out; I hope the mall doesn't blow it again...please add a Nordstrom, Saks, Neimans, Bloomingdales, Belk, Parisian, etc...a unique department store. This mall needs to do more to stand out and be unique, and should go more upscale.
