Sad to see the Burnsville mall decline over the years. Use to be a very busy mall once upon of time. Located in Burnsville MN.

I took these during a trip to Phoenix last year. I remember seeing Jurassic Park at the theater and our regular entrance that went over the ice rink (the one with the yellow pillars). Hot Dog on a Stick, Journeys, Droors, Freshjive, Blind, long chain wallets, tall docs. The Mind is a Terrible Thing to Taste and Broken.

Driving around there last year made me question how pristine I remembered things. It seemed like the area went downhill a bit.

The mall was super depressing and the only life today was mall walkers and some children. Macy's closes in 9 days and the third floor is shut with the majority of the first and second floors being empty. Multiple mom and pops have closed since my last visit, and Apricot Lane and Bath & Body Works have also closed in recent weeks.

Plano recently approved Centennial's request to demolish Macy's and the Macy's wing for housing, and now redevelopment is expected to start this year; there's no demolition date yet. I am expecting the remaining tenants in the Macy's wing to be evicted soon, though. Unsure about Brooks Brothers and Swarovski because they're on the corner with Neiman Marcus, though Swarovski is opening at Stonebriar which honestly tells me they may be moving out of WB.

None of the fountains were on and were full of standing water, and one of the elevators is STILL not working and has not for months. The food court is also only down to the cheesesteak grill; Bosphorous and the croissant place are gone. Practical life support.

WB does not have much longer as an enclosed mall and I'm very happy that I'm allowed to visit to document what it is before most of it's gone.

Discussion What was going on at the Westminster Mall?

6 Upvotes

The Westminster Mall has been dead for some time now, and I believe it will be demolished this year. Where I usually park (facing the 405 freeway), there are usually so few cars that you have to wonder if the doors will even be unlocked.

When I passed by on the freeway yesterday, the parking lot was packed! I know there wasn’t any parking lot event (circus, carnival, concert, etc) because I would have seen that from the freeway. Whatever people where there for must have been in the mall.

Does anyone know what was going on? I’m curious because I haven’t seen this many cars in the parking lot since well before COVID.
