A similar point could be made about Downtown Brooklyn, once consisting of high-end stores. Then in 1971, Kings Plaza was built. Malls were the in-thing and no one wanted to shop on "main street" anymore. Many shoppers no longer wanted to travel to Downtown Brooklyn and many of the high end stores were replaced with shlock stores. Middle and Upper class don't shop in shlock stores, so the clientele of the neighborhood declines. Even with the building of Fulton Mall and Metro-Tech, Fulton Street still looks like crap. |
