These American Malls are the potential 5 minute cities that we really need. With a little planning and implementation, they can become true communities by focusing on being mostly self sustaining. 😊

I think this is a good idea - self-contained mini-cities where people can live, work, play, and shop all in the same place. For those malls where it makes more financial sense to demolish and rebuild than retrofit, maximize the space by building up. However, this concept will only work if these residential units are affordable for the average person. They shouldn't be allowed to be purchased by institutional investors or speculators. Otherwise, they'll just be replacing one large, empty structure with multiple units that will sit empty because they're unaffordable.

People living right inside the mall are going to be ordering from Amazon, LOL.

I think what negative effected this mall is was rent they charge per store was too high compared to the profits they made. Malls in south Florida are doing well enough to survive in other areas and full of people

Due to the massive influx of escapees from Blue States . Mobile Home Parks are being bought by Developers . Bulldozed and converted to Condo's . Old Hotels , Malls and even Motels are being converted into Residential Properties . Very expensive Properties i might add . Good luck finding Property Insurance that you can afford .

The cost of HOA will be off the charts!

“Affordable Housing” is a different market than “Available Housing”.

There needs to be more affordable housing in most cities, but developers don't make money on affordable housing. I doubt the rents in this development will be affordable either.

Cool idea but I think all these new developments have been based off old data. It’s not the same market it was even 6 months ago. People are leaving South Florida for various reasons but almost all go back to affordability. Auto and home Insurance rates, taxes, high rent, home prices etc. pair that with high interest rates, inflation, low wages etc. and you see why people are struggling to live comfortably here. When people say we need more “affordable housing” they don’t mean like section 8 and housing assistance they mean moderately priced normal apartments. Problem is so many have been converted to high end “luxury” apartments to maximize profitability for the landlords that very few normal “white refrigerator” type apartments exist anymore.

That is a great idea, but it needs to be done right so as not to have unintended consequences. Malls can also make available cheaper office spaces so as to create more foot traffic for the stores below it.

Make it mixed use housing types affordable to the middle class and more of the community will be on board! No more overpriced “luxury” apartments

I don’t know anything about the areas these malls are in. I am familiar with the neighborhoods around dead malls in other states, and often you don’t want to live there. The evolution of a mall typically is, it was built when the neighborhood was thriving, the area aged, people moved away, and the people who replaced them either didn’t shop at the mall or couldn’t afford the mall pricing, then the mall died. Is that an area to build brand new condos and apartments?

Get a video editor that can make a segment without each clip being a completely different volume seriously what the hell

These cities and developers are missing a huge opportunity to build residential next to existing malls and turn the existing malls into centers for GenX and older millennials as they become empty nesters.

I just watched another video that said they had all kinds of properties that aren't selling fast in south Florida. LOL! Which is it?

Good report

too bad its still ridiculously expensive.

"Live, work, play" is one of the BIGGEST LIES that developers foist upon unsuspecting government officials and citizens. We are all for development of underutilized malls and their acres of useless parking. If you are going to mix multi unit residential housing, hotel space and such; developers need to fine tune the mix of retail to have a real supermarket, pharmacy, a dry cleaner, little "you mail it" place and less of the destination shopping eating and boozing. with its finely crafted and curated drinks, food and BS. Unfortunately, the way the number always work in these places, the only business that can afford the rents are the large chain places and not smaller local shops.. This is why we as a nation can drive from one end of the country to the other and come across the same CRAP retail and dining chains. There is simply no regionality anymore, as corporations come in and sell the same crap time after time.

Love this idea. Have long said this and empty office spaces should be converted into housing.

They are building one here in Central Fl. Its a great ideal.

From a business standpoint this makes sense to cram people into a renovated mall. But it still is a shame when you think about it on a deeper level when it comes to the “American Dream”

I mean if done right it might be cool to live inside a mall. With all the extra parking they could place or build other units or stores around the border of the property.

Don't fall for this. It only benefits the developers. What America needs is a traditional family home with room to grow and a yard to digress. What you don't need is cramming 1000 people into a one block space where their is never enough parking, no security, delivery packages get stolen, and teens have no space to release their angst except to become a nuisance and you have no private space other than your small square foot inner walls.

Renovate all the buildings not being used. Developers need to be held accountable. Quit destroying natural habitats

If they would just stop destroying endangered and threatened wildlife habitats, I'm fine with them converting these malls into homes. In the past 2 years I've witnessed multiple gopher tortoise and burrowing owl nesting lands destroyed so foreign investment groups could build rental properties on them. What's worse is when we explain what's going on to the non natives they tell us to leave if we don't like it. I'm just trying to protect what little bit of wildlife is left just like my parents and grandparents before me.

It’s bad when there is zero political will to fix the infrastructure such as adequate roads and viable public transit. The roads are already a nightmare. Perhaps if the city encourages “work from home” legislation, they could offset the traffic, but the commercial real estate developers will never let that happen.

15 min city? WEF telling you what you need and want. Yard? why would you want your own space?

Climate change and rising sea levels will make properties in low lying areas and coastal areas impossible to insure. Banks will be reluctant to give a mortgage for 15 or 30 years because the property may be under water. Selling properties to average buyers will become impossible in the future as banks and mortgage companies stop making loans for these properties. Coastal areas are a high risk for insurance and extreme weather like hurricanes. People will have to self insure and take the risk of loss. Condo associations are losing their insurance and if they find a new higher cost policy they will be passing on the higher costs to association members. Flooded cars from hurricanes were filling the salvage lots. Insurance companies will raise rates and pass on the costs and risks to policy holders next year. Coastal properties will be confined to wealthy individuals that can buy properties with cash and self insure for losses from hurricanes or rising sea levels.
