Here are some mini-updates and extras for my readers until the next full post comes out. Some of these images were taken with the intent of creating a full article and others are not sufficient for a full blog post.
Alexandria Mall 2015 extra images.
A much better photo of the Sears entrance.
A couple of empty store fronts near Sears.
Spring Deauville Mall 2015 mini-update.
The former Designer Depot and mall corridor have been renovated and reopened as the Spring Reception Hall. Check out the site for the new business here, they really improved the inside of the former mall. There is still one untouched corridor of the mall next to the Ace Mart that you can see through the glass doors.

Fiesta Parker Rd and I-69 2013 extra images.
Here are a few close ups of the signage to the store. Classic neon and chasing lights still going strong after all of these years.
K&B/Rite Aid Lake Charles 2015 extra images.
If the deal to purchase Rite Aid closes, this store will be remodeled or closed.
Check out the items listed on the aisle marker, you can actually find nearly everything on the sign including video tapes and audio tapes.
Pasadena Town Square Mall 2015 mini update.
The mall is still struggling to fill spaces and has lost several stores over the past two years. Some of the businesses taking spaces are only open limited hours.
The former Dillard's is now being used by a company named Ventech.

Northshore Square Mall 2015 mini update.
Big changes are in store for Northshore Square Mall. The mall will be torn down with only the former Sears, JCPenney, and Dillard's clearance store remaining. A new big box center will be built roughly where the mall currently stands.
This Dillard's closed shortly after this photo was taken. The other Dillard's store at the mall was downgraded to a clearance store after a new Dillard's store opened a few miles away.

The mall has not changed much, roughly the same amount of stores are open in the mall with the exception of the food court. Tilt, Wendy's and a few other food outlets closed over the past two years.
