East Texas Towns Reimagined as Iconic Mall Shops
When you think about being younger, growing up in Texas, you probably have lots of fun memories spending time with family and friends. Whether you were playing video games, talking on the phone, or going to the mall, those were really fun times. But what if we had some fun reimagining East Texas towns as stores in the mall.
Why Malls Still Matter in East Texas
Most of us remember going to the mall wasn’t just about going shopping; it was socializing and was a popular place to be seen by others. It wasn’t uncommon to spend hours strolling through your favorite stores and grabbing something from the food court.
Living here in East Texas, we are fortunate to still have multiple malls that are still very active and have lots of shops open and doing well. It’s still fun to visit the mall on the weekend and see lots of vehicles in the parking lot and people walking and shopping.
