...of the Mall-shopping era. We were at the new Winter Garden Village yesterday (formerly an orange grove), and I was reminded of how many regional shopping complexes were built around this new basic design. As with The Loop (bottom photo - formerly a cow pasture) at Osceola Parkway and John Young, the basic configuration consists of parallel strips facing each other across a parking lot.
Yesterday, utilizing our van, we flitted from store to store, like bees gathering nectar from a field of flowers. No food courts here, though -but a plethora of free-standing "feeding stations" on the peripherals.
We came, we saw, we shopped, we ate......America, 2010, ya'll =:o)
