The advent of shopping malls had a devastating effect on the shopping districts of small towns, leading to vacant store fronts and empty sidewalks.  But also lost was the personal shopping and dining experience.

Even though malls have park benches, potted trees and maybe even a gazebo, they cannot recreate the feel of small town retailing.  Some shoppers have become “malled-out,” and so, new retail developers have “un-malled” stores and actually designed outdoor shopping centers with small town streetscapes.  

Now shoppers can walk outside from store to store on new sidewalks and small streets where once, was open land.  But even in these replicated small towns, there remains something missing from the small town shopping and dining experience.
