Deerbrook Mall, Humble

This mall was poorly designed when built in the '80s and has suffered everthing from losing its most prominent anchor, Macy's, to being inconvenient to get to -- even by locals -- because of years and of nearby freeway construction. It's rebound was sparked in part by the addition of a big theater and, recently, an expansive Barnes & Noble. Dilliards, which took the place of Macy's, is my favorite place to buy men's suits for a bargain. Also has one of the better Foley's store in Houston. It's still small enough to navigate easily. This is pretty much everything a quality regional mall should be.
