NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO LEONSSSSSS :(:(:frowning:

no suprise to me the mall was pathetic if you even want to call it a mall. the drive in the pot hole filled parking lot didnt help.

parking lot was bad but theoutlet ran them out
it used to be a great mall

So who wants to buy it and turn it into the worlds largest strip club? Different ethnicity in each store; even hairy-backed Cubans! Zoning would be easy- it’s Niagara Falls…

This area has too many malls anyway.

I got all I need with Alexander’s in NT…

lol is there even any good stores in there too get good closing deals??? i went in there once and that was because i needed to piss when i was at SnR and the portapotties were backed up for like a 10 minute wait…let alone the only rezon i knew that place existed was bcus of SnR

I never knew that mall had 40 stores?!?!

I always thought it would be cool if every store was a different bar/club. It would make bar hopping in the winter doable.

sounds good ill partner with ya chris

I’m willing to bet they do the same as they did with Appletree.

I was a manager at Cavages Music in the Summit Mall and Factory Outlet (Crazy Charlies). I was there when they started the remodel of the Outlet Mall. That is what did the Summit in. They did a great job with the Outlet Mall and Summit hasn’t done anything to update or bring in many new stores.

Not sure if many of you remember, but Outlet Mall was a hole in the ground compared to the way it looks today. Hell, that was one of the very first Timmy Ho’s in WNY. We had access to our coffee crack almost 20 years ago

Too little too late for Summit Mall. Turn it into a business park. And fix the damn parking lot.

Man, I went there just to check it out the other day. It’s SO depressing in there…
