"Residents had hoped to revitalize the neighborhood with the construction of a Springfield town center, but the builder abandoned the plans in the face of rising construction costs."

my friend was telling me how Springfield mall will be demolished for the new town center...guess not.

I'm sure that Paper Moon is a pretty good sign that all hopes of revitalizing that area have been abandoned.

Springfield should be razed and made into just a massive crossroads with no stores. It's already 2/3 of the way there.

That place should be imploded! It is so scuzzy and disgusting!!!!!! I remember times as a kid running through the mall to TIME OUT. I do miss the hot girl who use to run the ORANGE JULIUS, damn she was fine! Now its a piece of shit, and has a weird smell.

You mean the Mid-Town Springfield development that was abandoned. The Springfield Mall redevelopment is going full blast. Midtown plans where abandoned because the Springfield Mall was bought by Vornodo and they were going to build bigger and better so the developer bailed, but they still own the land.

Vornado has a permit in process for "Entire Demo" for a portion of the
mall. Demo location looks like it is in the area of and including
Macys.


They also just submitted plans to Fairfax concerning their plans.

A new website dedicated to the Springfield Town Center is now up.
Nothing more than a splash screen, but promises details soon.

once they got rid of the 'mall wall' skatepark, it was all downhill, not to be confused with over the hill, which i obviously am due to the fact that i just referenced mall wall.
