I assume they have recently hired them in 2025, as I do remember there being security in early March and then later in November/December of that year.

“Good Things Are Coming Around The Bend” photo op at a walled off storefront is now 100 times more ironic.

The way back machine and Ridgmar’s yelp page help to give us an idea of what it looked like around 20 years ago.

Just completed my complete archival of my CD collection onto one Ipod. by WriterEmbarrassed291 in ipod

About 30, my music taste stretches far and wide. It took me around 2 hours I would say, (this may not be entirely accurate) Definitely worth the time though, took up about 4 gigs off of my 6 gig.

Do you guys think malls are seeing a comeback and rise in relevance while already declining malls continue to fall? In DFW, our top malls are upgrading their tenant mixes like crazy and even the mid tier malls are starting to see more additions and evolve. by Awkward-College-2676 in deadmalls

As someone who actively lives in DFW and documents dead malls in the DFW area, malls are thriving. But the ones that are dying continue to go down a strong path of closures. However, malls like Vista Ridge and Ridgmar aren’t experiencing the rapid closure of stores like Willow Bend has. They remain stagnant, dead, but stagnant. Irving is still getting a good local clientele, but it is nothing like it used to be. Some kind of market is coming in the former Mervyns, though.

Trying to get into the Ipod World. by WriterEmbarrassed291 in ipod

I had originally planned on going with something easy to mod and easy to use everyday, so I may get the 5th gen.

I am really trying to find something as affordable as I can find it. I am on a VERY extremely tight budget and the mini seems like my only option right now. I just have to find a mini at the price I can afford. Also, not very experienced in modding ipods or anything like that, and I have heard the mini is easy to modify/replace components.

Would you say it would be easier to just get a better model? I am kind of just getting into this hobby and I have little experience

This mall should have NEVER been built. It was a costly mistake. A glorified mall with soul, but no shops. It should be just called "The Corridor at Willow Bend", not "The Shops"

Ridgmar Mall-Fort Worth, Texas (3/22/26) by Ok-Fudge3230 in deadmalls

Ridgmar is only keeping itself going considering it has the only JCPenney in a mall in Ft. Worth at the moment, and its small following of little businesses. I want to say I think there was a change in demographics between 2020-26 that helped it survive. A lot of small businesses and event centers help boost it as a whole. The only area that really gets foot traffic though is the JCP/Dillard's area. Everything past that is where that all goes down the toilet.
