The "Nice Mall" vs. the "Yucky Mall"

[AGDLynn]

Hubby works across the street from Perimeter..it's getting better, lol.
Gwinnett - very down hill fast.
Mall of Ga. - yea
Discover Mills - very down hill fast.
South Dekalb - Near my work but I rarely go there.
North Dekalb and Northlake--Forget they are there, lol.
Cumberland - It's improved. Gone there a couple of times since they reopened but haven't had a chance to take my time looking.

Lenox and Perimeter - usually go to other malls b/c of the traffic problem.

Thanks for the update, Lynn!
Cumberland...I think I was there when they opened the doors, but haven't been there since like 1975! I did love living in Atlanta.

Now...how about NASHVILLE malls? Any Nashvillians here? Surely Cool Springs is not the top mall...I mean, we have most of the stores here in the Decatur/Huntsville, Ala., area. Please give me a reason to drive to Nashville for the day!

Definitely Green Hills... I know they've got Tiffany & Co and I'm pretty sure Louis Vuitton is going in (if it's not already there).

Cool Springs is one of the nicer malls... but not the top.

I'm ready to see what they are gonna do with the Bellevue Mall. I remember back in the day when we went there all the time because it was about 10 minutes from the house. But, when Cool Springs came in, it took all the business away. But, from the plans I've heard, they are planning on tearing it down and doing "The Avenue" kind of plan... like the one in Destin and Avenue @ The Crossing in Collierville, TN (outside of Memphis).

Cool Springs is a little more suburban - tons of outlying shopping and kid-friendly stores. Green Hills is more upscale and quiet - Louis Vuitton, Tiffany, Ann Taylor, etc. There are also a lot of boutique stores within walking distance, so check out Bandywood St. or the Hill Center, as well, if you're in the area. Opry Mills has a ton of outlet stores (including Saks!) and different kinds of stores. It is also great if you just want to walk around and kill some time. However, it can get crazy-busy with tourists on the weekends. Our yucky mall is Hundred Oaks - it is scary.
