Looks like renovation and they put a sheet over the railings (same height as the escalator railings).

Liminal spaces are the subject of an Internet aesthetic portraying empty or abandoned places that appear eerie, forlorn, and often surreal. Liminal spaces are commonly places of transition (pertaining to the concept of liminality) or of nostalgic appeal.

Yeah I think there’s a floor above and it’s just not being used right now. Still looks weird though.
god that’s creepy. this might be the liminaliest post yet
Just why?
Probably renovating that floor, or downsizing. Lots of people aren’t shopping at malls and department stores.
Because Sears closed
Because there was another floor for the same business but perhaps the business went under (I'm thinking of Sears around here) and the mall building owners are leasing it to two different businesses.
Makes sense
Get us a photo of the popsicle stick skyscraper before it burns down.
