I was at Bellevue Square the other day when I saw:
Borders, closing permanently on June 12th?! Putting on my Sherlock cap, I initiated an investigation on this matter by questioning one of the prime suspects, the cashier. After my extensive attempt at prying the cause of this operational shutdown, which lasted 3 seconds, she relented and disclosed the reason: “The rent is too high.”
What’s wrong with Bellevue Square? We’ve already witnessed one of the greatest fiasco in Mall history when Disney decided to close their doors, but apparently that wasn’t enough. At this rate, the mall will become the Rodeo Drive of Seattle with expensive brands and unaffordable merchandice!
To look on the bright side, I suppose it will put a damper to Karen’s compulsive, extravagant Bellevue Square shopping habits. 😆
If you think it is extravagant now, wait until it does become Rodeo!
Oh no, not looking forward to the traffic around here. 🙂
