There were no "ties." One board member donated to him. It wasn't a store thing. It was a personal thing.

It's 22,000 square feet. It's not that tiny.

I’m five miles away and generally avoid Tysons at all costs.

Same here.

I think the traffic has eased since the pandemic started AND once they opened up the road by the new Capital One building — people can cut through from Rt 7 to 123 that way, which resulted in an overall reduction in traffic. My husband and I frequently walk in the Galleria and will sometimes peruse through the other mall. It hasn’t been bad!

I don't think they'll have much in the way of clearance. I think they will just ship the merchandise to other stores.

I hope they move it to fair Oaks Mall. There’s plenty of space and it must be cheaper out here.

1. LLBean is a garbage store selling garbage, boring stuff.
2. Places like Tysons closing down is good for society. What a cesspool of meaningless consumerism wrapped up in a jumbo parking garage.

This thread is so on-brand for DCUM "style." You go to the mall for LL Bean.

The staff there are generally unpleasant. Last time I wen tin person was approximately 20 years ago. I called recently about gloves and mittens I reserved online for my kid, but never heard back about ... super snotty. Good riddance. Can't stand stores where employees are so unpleasant.

Fair Oaks Mall would be a good location - or a free-standing store near Potomac Mills. I think the former Gander Mountain store is vacant.

Amazing how you are writing in present tense about an incident two decades ago.
