RE: Market Friday The Time Warner Centre
Wow!! The first shot pulled me right in, but the second shot is simply breathtaking in its composition and editing! In actuality, they are all so well done, you should have been in advertising. So not kidding!
I agree with you, noting that whenever there is a bank, it usually blends in well with the more upscale surroundings of the malls. Or perhaps I should say that they dress up to be in scale with the bank. At any rate, I can actually remember when the Northeast had very few malls, they were the last area in the US to catch on. They liked their mom and pop stores and real estate was not as available as in Texas and Arizona or even Florida. I can remember the very first mall (it had a Pathmark grocery as its anchor) in the town I lived in Connecticut.
Anyway. I love Papyrus too and their stores always are a welcome sight. I'm with you on the window shopping though. Unless I want to buy, I make a better window shopper.
Thank you for going that extra mile for #MarketFriday and sending us the amazing content!

Its always a pleasure to join Market Friday :) and thanks for the tip
I do not remember any Malls in New Zealand apart from one in the Big Cities when I lived there, I am sure there must be a few of them now, I for the most part prefer the little strip malls with the Mom and Pop most of those I see now have many empty stores which to me is sad to see
Well, I left there way after you left New Zealand, but, they were not an item until sometime in the 80's and even then, not as many as everywhere else. I dislike the empty stores. It is so very sad, like driving by a boarded-up house when you are driving.
I left Connecticut so long ago, it makes me want to weep. I go back, but, it isn't the same as living there and having your life there. But, when I went last time, so of downtown had boarded up businesses.
Blasphemous! That was unheard of just a few years back. It has a negative impact on the entire town.
thats a valid point thinking back to how long ago I left New Zealand makes me feel old LOL
YEs your right it is sad seeing them like that and a good comparison indeed
