Next developer plans.. how to repurpose mall properties ?
Server farms? Fullfillment centers? Not enough power for server farms. Not enough floor load for fulfillment centers.
My company looked at the empty mall near our company for use as a potential distribution center or even a manufacturing building. The floor wasn't capable of any sort of industrial load. The building structure could not handle anything other than the roof. Pretty much a shed. The old South Park Mall (insert Cartman joke here) in Union City, GA (just south of Atlanta) got converted into a movie studio. Not an option everywhere of course, but I thought that was a pretty creative use of the existing facility.
Lots of filming going on in the Atlanta area these days. That will change, eventually.
