ajsadauskas, 2 months ago (edited 2 months ago) to Canada When urban renewal goes wrong: Inside a dead mall frozen in 1990. Very interesting short film by Bright Sun Films. Along with the usual urban exploration bits, he gives a good history of how and why it failed. The shopping centre was supposed to revitalise downtown Hamilton, Ontario. But within six years, it had just a 40% occupancy rate. A decade after opening, it sold for only CAN$3.6 million — just 5% of what it originally cost to build. https://youtu.be/NV_c_c_RZdE?si=4fNO5BJAoWzcx_bw #urbanism #UrbanPlanning #Canada #Ontario @urbanism #UrbanRenewal #malls #DeadMalls #UrbEx #UrbanExplaration
