This is a great step in the right direction. Mall of Georgia has always been ahead, and IMO still is, but less now. It is newer, nicer looking, has Nordstrom, but NP isn't too far behind.<br />
It definitely distinguishes itself from Town Center at Cobb. One day, I think that eventually NorthPoint will evolve into something like Mall of Georgia, and Mall of Georgia will evolve into something more like Perimeter (upscale), but still larger and more of a "mega-mall". Kind of like a mini Mall of America I suppose. Hopefully Lenox will evolve to be something like Houston Galleria (it already is, just with less upscale stores and smaller), just larger and more upscale, I suppose. Phipps I'm not sure about, but I'm hoping that the Saks/Nordstrom wings will become even more upscale and the Belk wing will just be kind of a midscale/more upscale children's stores and moderate price stores that aren't at Lenox, etc. Like maybe move Coldwater Creek, etc. to the Belk wing and put boutiques there or something.<br><br><b>View information on projects and add your own in our new Project Database: [<a href="http://www.urbanplanet.org/forums/page/databases/project_db">Link</a>]</b>]]></description>

Well, I hope they aren't. Can't say I blame them if they wanted to move. The problem is that Phipps is slowly turning into kiddie land and some of the luxury stores probably aren't going to spend the money to open new stores at Lenox or Buckhead Atlanta. Hopefully, Lenox will renovate and Phipps will try their best to make sure the stores hold on and separate kiddie land from the luxury part of the mall. Hopefully, they will renovate that part and make it nicer. The blogger definitely has some experience and does know what he/she is talking about, however, I think that he/she definitely puts stores/restaurants on his/her closing list way too soon.<br />

Yeah we were supposed to get ALL saints according to that blogger and it hasnt open yet.  Barneys was on Deathwatch a long time ago and it was supposed to close according to that blogger but its still open.

Well, these are bad times for Phipps. Even before Legoland open up, they have lost Theory. Also, Tiffany's and Juicy Couture want to move, probably Tiffany's to Buckhead Atlanta and Juicy to Lenox. Versace, Barney's, Vince, and Valentino are all not doing well either and may close. Also, newly opened Bottega Veneta is already struggling. Michael Kors is opening a new store at Phipps, not a relocation. Will be more runway couture inspired, etc.<br />
I am really scared though because it seems like half of the luxury stores are closing. Nordstrom and Saks aren't going to be too happy....<br /></div></div>

I was hoping they would just do an exterior renovation, not an interior one.
