> The more upscale malls in Houston

Yes, but for every Galleria or Woodlands Mall there's a number of malls like Greenspoint or Northwest, losing anchor stores and becoming very low quality. Even malls like Deerbrook, which while still containing mainstream stores and staying pretty busy, are very obviously becoming run down.




Well, to be fair, Greenspoint (also affectionately called "Gunspoint") is not exactly a thriving area. I don't think it's surprising that a mall in a run-down area might be run-down.


It wasn't always that way - it was originally intended to be a thriving area (see the office buildings in the area), but during development, the economy went sideways.
