flamehunter wrote:It does include the theater. If you read the article, it sounds like they believe the mall to be viable as a mall. I don't believe it will be closed down.Some suggestion that there is room to use space more constructively. There is plenty of wasted parking. A hotel and restaurant are planned for two pads that aren't owned by CBL. The hotel is just starting construction.

I really hope that the university concentrates on suring up the resident program for the future in a way that allows it to stand on its own should the online program experience strong headwinds at some point in the next 10-15 years.

Now Macy's is closing a bunch of stores, but I don't know that the Lynchburg location is one of them.
