Overgrown

Bellevue Center INashville, TN)

This is the 4th "O" for the "Os in October. Join in!".
Somewhat maintained but being overtaken after sitting
abandoned for over 7 years now. Bellevue center is a
good example of bad timing and a poor economy. It was
once set to be the fashion magnet mall in Nashville. At
this time only Sears is holding on to one anchor spot.

Looks a nice place, but too much overgrown.

I like the overgrowth. Sad to hear about the mall.

A sign of the times Scott, and cheep imports from China.

We have a similar mall here but it's demise was due to gangs...though maybe gangs due to a poor economy?
Janice Dunn05-Oct-2014 20:26
Yes, bad timing. I like how nature is taking over...

Very nice colourful scene.

We have a mall that has now turned into a technical school. But Sears kept the corner Anchor spot. It's funny to see a school with a Sears! :)

And even Sears is in trouble. No TJ Max? Quite uneven in the fashion industry. Good document here. V
