Because of the economic decline in the U.S., shopping malls are closing and the photo expose is surreal and interesting. Regardless of one’s thoughts re retail, buy local, support small business, corporatism, capitalism, economics…the photo’s are unsettling for the future. Who will buy up the vacant land? Will this even be an opportunity for small businesses to fill the void? At any rate…look at the pics as an interesting pictorial study I guess.

I, too, guess online shoppers. I am not one. Not a big shopper regardless but prefer to see & touch what I am buying. ~SueBee

I am the same way. Need to see it, try it on and perhaps a need for immediate gratification.

Maybe people are doing their shopping on their computer or phone.

Yes that is a portion of it…for sure. But, not the primary cause.
