anchor storesThe Richland Mall at intersection of Waco Dr. and Hwy. 6 in Waco opened in 1980 with J. C. Penney and Sears at either ends and Dillards in the middle. Dillards has taken over Sears old space and I'm wondering how much longer Penney's will hang on. In between are countless Indian run kiosks. Both of the two books stores that were there have been gone for decades and of course the Radio Shack. The mall doesn't even have video security for the parking lots, which I guess is a commentary on an earlier, safer time or simply a time of lower technical expertise.

The Capitola mall has a Target in it.
The mall mostly attracts Mexicans and their spawn.
Walmart and the rest probably prefer not to squeeze into a mall and pay rent to the mall owner.

"It was a ghost of its former self."
One-half the shops and a major department store (J.C. Penney's) were gone. One of our old hangouts-The Elephant Walk Restaurant was gone. Foot traffic was light. There were murals on many walls bravely depicting new shops coming in the future. I did find a decent sandwich shop Ike's.
