The Future
This mall does not seem to have a bright future. After 3 "Shut downs" followed by re-openings, there is a likely chance the next "Shut Down" will be permanent. Macy's has been struggling, but might remain in the event the mall closes. The center is 4 miles south of Decatur, thirty minutes shy of Lenox Square Mall and Phipps Plaza, as well as Southlake Mall of Morrow, Georgia, and is seemingly not holding well against the newer competitors.

Famous quotes containing the word future:
“I imagine, on the benches of an assembly, the most intrepid of thinkers, a brilliant mind, one of those men who, when they ascend the tribune, feel it beneath them like the tripod of the oracle, suddenly grow in stature and become colossal, surpass by a head the massive appearances that mask reality, and see clearly the future over the high, frowning wall of the present.”
—Victor Hugo (1802–1885)
“Plato—who may have understood better what forms the mind of man than do some of our contemporaries who want their children exposed only to “real” people and everyday events—knew what intellectual experience made for true humanity. He suggested that the future citizens of his ideal republic begin their literary education with the telling of myths, rather than with mere facts or so-called rational teachings.”
—Bruno Bettelheim (20th century)
