Vacant Sears space at 12 Oaks Mall to be transformed with new retailers

[Airforceguy]

The building, owned by Transformco, will house Dick's House of Sport on the lower level, with Primark and Round One Bowling and Arcade planned for the upper level. "I think it's wonderful. Revitalizes the mall and makes people happy," Hoener said.

Dick's House of Sport will occupy approximately 100,000 square feet with in-store experiences including a climbing wall, multiple golf bays, outdoor field with a track, ice rink, and multi-sport cage where athletes can try products while measuring and tracking their performance.

Twelve Oaks Mall need these kinds of business to fill up the large empty anchor stores. Having Dick Sports and Round One Arcade Center will turn that mall around.

...turn that mall around.

What seems to work is converting malls to prosperity megachurches.

I was in Oakland Mall Saturday around 2:00. It was pretty dead. Ideally they would move JC Penney to the Macy's space and just tear down the back end of the mall. Of course, I doubt Penney wants this expense since they may not be around for long either.

That's because malls can't survive without its anchor stores.

There's a difference?
