The American shopping mall, that shrine to bland, homogeneous commercialism, seems to be an endangered species. As WorldChanging reports, malls are falling into desuetude all over the nation. We’re not going to miss them much. Everything we found valuable about mall culture has been perfectly archived in Bill and Ted’s Excellent Adventure and Clueless. And guess what all that old space is being used for? Art galleries and mixed-use pedestrian plazas. Awesome. Happy Monday, folks.
