I'm relieved to hear that it'll be a gas station again soon, though there's no signage to indicate that on site. It's always super popular so it makes sense that they'd upgrade. Great location, good prices.

I remember when ...Northlake is painful to look at. I remember when they had the likes of Gap, Eddie Bauer, Express, Structure, and pretty much most of the standard mall stores. Macy's was 3 floors...<br /><br />The whole irony of Northlake's "collapse" is that it's not at all in a blighted area. It's right down the street from 3 bedroom 1960's ranch houses that are going for $300K+. I guess it just had the misfortune of being sandwiched between Lenox, Perimeter, and (albeit to a lesser degree), Stonecrest.<br /><br />I can imagine some sort of redevelopment not too unlike Town Brookhaven in the near future, which would be better than what they've got now. For one thing, the only viable anchor that could carry over is Kohl's. I feel if and when Macy's has to choose between North Dekalb and Northlake, I'd imagine, they'd keep North Dekalb open (is it just me or does the N.D. Macy's seem to have some sort of community following? but I digress..) And then Sears is pretty much on it's last leg and JCPenney has its own Issues, but I guess I could see them sticking around too...Tresnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-579719431387122896.post-71121518770100935382014-04-24T17:30:19.695-04:002014-04-24T17:30:19.695-04:00@SB,

I am sure the decision regarding the retail location is based solely on the volume of traffic and disposable income of the mall patrons, but it is also like Fox News putting up their billboard across from CNN's headquarters down town.cafeejhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05160010974770821177noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-579719431387122896.post-78476181842272566522014-04-24T09:06:10.837-04:002014-04-24T09:06:10.837-04:00@mindspringyahoo RE: Northlake,
