Shopping Centers
Tallahassee has a variety of shopping centers, both indoor and outdoor, in most areas of town. Please feel free to start a page on any of them, or add to one that exists.
The Tallahassee Mall is our town's oldest indoor mall, and now, over 40 years later, the mall struggles to survive, following foreclosure in January 2011 due to debt exceeding $55 million. There are mixed opinions among locals about what should be done with it.

CollegeTown - http://www.fsucollegetown.net/ - Though many are looking forward to the opening of CollegeTown, some feel that this large financial investment is inappropriate and irresponsible during challenging economic times, particularly given the years of budget cuts to the university, and are concerned that the developer doesn't have any equity invested in the project.
