    Oh Lincoln Square Mall, you are what old friends and I have dubbed "The Sad Mall." Your halls are cool and spacious, void of customers. Sometimes you're exciting when you host events like the model train show, kitten adoption fair, or charity chocolate buffet, but most of the time you are quiet like a grandmother's house. You are my Anti-MarketplaceMall and I love you for it.

    Art Mart is cool. If you want baby clothes, healing crystals, food places that never seem to be open when you're there, or to work out at the gym, this is a great place for that too.

    I lived near this mall for almost a year a frequented it often. This may lead to the belief that there is something going for it, buy in the contrary, there isn't. I came here almost weekly due to my bank's ATM location, but outside of this and Common Ground, there wasn't much to look at.

    Also inside sits an awkward Cardinal FItness where I can watch everyone working out and a cool little Art Coop, that I can't ever say I have been in.

    Other highlights would be gum ball machines and the spacious environment. As a mall, not much is going on.  I really want this to be the Michael Jordan of malls and have a comeback, but I just don't think it is possible.

    This indoor shopping mall is balanced between housing well-known names such as Hallmark and Radioshack, and local businesses.  There a few great places for unusual gifts, such as Art Mart.  Sadly, they've lost many retail businesses and have started relying on office space rental to stay alive.  They used to have a Carsons as their main store, but it closed and became a Herberger's - that closed too and I think they'll be lucky to get another big store in there.  I hope they draw some new tenants because it's ideally located and has always had a great feel.

    This is an awful mall. For the four years I went here I might have come here twice! They had pretty much no stores here because everything was shut down! The location is great but they need to do some remodeling and bring some better stores in!
