UrbanLandscape Posted September 16, 2004 Share Posted September 16, 2004 Dallas is still one of the best shopping locations in the world, I'm told.The whore Prestonwood thing really upsets me. While I'm not defending a mall, everyone loved it, and it really suffered from bad management. It was nice, but now they are going to have a WalMart. I want to see the stuck-up attitude of Far North Dallas unite with the ever-urbanizing people of Addison work together and fight it the way the people of the Duck Creek neighborhood in my hometown of Richardson fought WalMart...and won.If people unite, if they work together, they can fight even the oppressive machinations of WalMart. By the way, there has yet to be an actual WalMart built in Richardson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
