I agree with you about Forrest Fair I was in there a week ago and it is kind of sad to see it so empty. Towne Mall has been empty for a while I wish it would fill, up again it was a fun place to go when I was younger. Hopefully one day someone will know how to use Forrest Fair better and fill it back up or find a better use for it. I don't think Simon filled it and put all that money into it just to get everyone out of it and go to Monroe. But you never know I think they just a better opportunity in Monroe. But the company that bought it i guess sees a use for it but as yet haven't played there hand.

I know about where vehicles are made. A lot of cars that are supposedly American are made elsewhere and some foreign cars are made here. I read min your article about the banks being long delayed but I know it is something that you can't just shake like an etch a sketch and start over I was just saying I hope they get It right. I stand corrected at your statement about the failure. but there are others who do hope this and openly say it on here. I read the article about the banks and looked at the other. I will admit I am not as informed as you but when I look on this site and see people always talking negatively about anything outside of a large city, it just seems liker they are looking down on those areas for some reason. For example some one in the Ohio pictures part took time out of there day to go to West Chester, take pictures of it, and post them will comments to make fun of it, just seems petty to me. And to see on here most people not hoping it succeeds it will just put a lot of people out of Jobs. I commend you for shopping locally whenever possible. I too shop at farmers markets for as much as I can I even grow my own veggies that I bought from the local farmers market.

I was just being a little sarcastic I realize it takes time to get it right, I just hope they do and turn downtown around so more people want to go there for something other than just a ball game. And yes I know people go there for More than that now on a limited basis. When I go to a game it seams like after the game there is a mass exudes of people onto the highways. Maybe with the banks complete more people will stay downtown and see what there is to offer and by so doing more businesses will start to thrive.

Someone asked how I found this site. I was searching for a restaurant in Cincinnati and stumbled onto it. Sherman u said I want low prices over wares made in the U S A well I drive a Chevy have a Craftsman lawnmower and probably a lot of other items. What clothing , which is what is mostly at an outlet mall, is still made here? My Ralph Lauren Shirts and Tommy clothing are made in the same place as yours only I got them for a few dollars less. Day you said you hope this place fails, Why?? How does it affect you at all if it fails or succeeds? I don't get it if you don't want to go don't. But to wish failure on others is just petty and shows how sad your life must be . I personally hope all new ventures succeed with flying collars . That would show our economy is on the way back. Even the Banks project in Cincy I hope they can get it right after spending 7000 years trying to decide what to do.

What do you mean trash? Day I guarantee this place will do well. I know people who travel over an hour to go to the Jeffersonville Outlets. So I think one closer will do well. If you people would maybe on occasion leave your dying Metro areas everyonce in a while you will see there is life outside the "big" cities. People are living and thriving even.

I went to Bridgewater yesterday afternoon. It was very crowded. I couldn't find a place too park in the middle near Coldstone and at Target had to park about 2/3 of the way out. On the other side We went to the pet store and TJMaxx and they were both packed. So yes this place is doing just fine. I overheard a manager at Penny's say they are consistently more busy then when located at Tricounty and more people buying less of the teenagers just hanging out in the store.

I don't know if this is even possible but, why doesn't Towne Mall just give free rent or cheap rent and at least the stores will pay there part of the utilities. When the mall starts to fill up that is when people will return. Have it written in the lease deals when the stores start making money they pay more rent. When they get to a certain point in occupancy and income then they can update the mall and the city and county may be more willing to pitch in. Just a thought
