Wow. This may be the first time since the mid 70's (when opening hours were changed from 9:30 am to 10:00 am) that malls have actually shortened their hours. It's not a bad idea, since malls are rarely crowded first thing in the morning or late at night, but it will invariably lead to staff layoffs, which is bad. But it is a major shift in philosophy, which had previously been to say open as much as possible in order to capture as many shoppers as they could.

I saw your rating of the Westfield Downtown Plaza. It must be very old as the mall is now a ghetto. Only half the stores are still open. It has been taken over by gang wannabes and street people. There is no concierge, no stroller rentals, only 4 food court restuarants. It's a pathetic excuse for a mall.
