Mauled

There are several awesome things about this NYTimes article about shopping malls:

  1. it’s written in the second person;
  2. it turned me on to deadmalls.com;
  3. it is a near-parody of the Times‘ legendary condescension toward “flyover” country, but not near enough;
  4. it is completely blind to the ways in which Manhattan is becoming an imitation of northern New Jersey mall culture.
