Here in Florida all the OG indoor malls have been abandoned, and developers keep building these new "outdoor" malls.

Outdoor. Malls. In Florida. Where it's hot.

And people keep going there because there's a new Sugar Factory or Fogo de Chão...

My inner urbanist despises these outdoor malls (at least the ones I've seen in Canada).

It's essentially an artificial car-free downtown surrounded by a massive parking lot, and rarely served by public transportation. Why don't we just build walkable downtowns instead? Is it because these are just suburbanites LARPing walkable living?
