Upscale Shopping Center (Destin)

[Cil]

I want to see a Neiman-Marcus on the panhandle! Then let's talk!

You mean Needless Mark-up? ;-)

Taubman is the development group which built the upscale Cherry Creek mall close to where we live here in Denver. It has served us well of the years.
Of course, now that we are leaving the state, they are finally opening a Nordstrom's there.

It is hard for me to imagine that kind of shopping anywhere on the Panhandle, but I suppose if they build it, people will come.

Personally, I can't see NM in the Panhandle...maybe a Last Call Outlet, but maybe you are right...if they build it?

I rmember Cherry Creek Mall from way back...they used to have a toy store with a ferris wheel on the roof (?) and a place to get delicious hot fudge sundaes. My relatives lived in Aurora and visiting them was always a highlight in my childhood!

That mall in Destin IS OVER Priced and I never found good name brands. Even a few smaller stores a cross the street has High prices for low end stuff. I don't shop in Destin for clothes.

They NEED those kind of stores to attract the kind of people that would pay for what some of those stores are selling......

And just what kind of people might that be attracting?

 

[Dabell]

The ones that can afford to buy my home lololol

Do you mean Silver Sands?

A couple of good treks each year to the Vanity Fair / Lee outlet in Graceville serves us well. I hear there is more in Foley, but I haven't been there yet.

Did I miss something? I thought you were checking out schools in anticipation of moving into your 2nd home. Or will you put both homes up for sale and see which sells - and that makes your decision for you?

Either way, I hope it all works out for you.

I was kidding! I can sell hands down my house here on Long Isalnd. But if I did move to FL, I would need something bigger than what I have, to fit my NY stuff in it. My place is VERY BRIGHT and different than most places in Sowal, Great to visit but, I would want something different to live in all year round. And I would Never Sell my house On Long Island, It's worth to keep. ;-)

A lot of stores in Silver Sands are pretty seasonal with their pricing. We don't even really bother to shop there in the summer because their prices for everything are higher then. But you can hit some decent to excellent sales in October-November (kind of compensates for the running of sharks and jellyfish that time of year) and then again in winter once the Christmas retail season wraps up.

But then I'm easy to please. Give me $60 leather Coach bags, and I'll be happy.

Maybe you mean the original mall, the one that was torn down in the early 90's? We used to get hot fudge sundaes at the old Woolworth's there.
The ferris wheel toy store does not ring a bell.

I am neither a name-brand person, nor much of a shopper, which is probably just as well for someone moving to Port St Joe. ;-)
I will probably depend on the internet/catalogs quite a bit.
