Notable Features
Near the food court main entrance a large multi-monitor display once existed showing mall related advertisements. Prior to the mall closing, there were plans to create Mall TV to provide original programming for mall patrons. In addition, several firms were brought in to provide entertainment for mall patrons such as live radio broadcasting, stage plays, town hall meetings, fashion shows and others. These events brought small numbers and some attention but not enough to sustain the mall. In one wing there existed a large metal sculpture of a clown on a unicycle, animated and positioned below one of the ceiling skylights. The sculpture has since been removed after many complaints from decay of the statue.
Notable features included a water fountain in the middle of the mall, which was a smaller version of one that previously existed. Other features included windows in the ceiling that provided natural light inside the mall, bright corridors and a large sun window in the food court.

“a notable prince that was called King John;
And he ruled England with main and with might,
For he did great wrong, and maintained little right.”

“All visible objects, man, are but as pasteboard masks. But in each event—in the living act, the undoubted deed—there, some unknown but still reasoning thing puts forth the mouldings of its features from behind the unreasoning mask. If man will strike, strike through the mask!”
—Herman Melville (1819–1891)
