Review of Bates Worlwide, New York

This mall has some great things going for itself (...

This mall has some great things going for itself (e.g., a notable name, the direct subway and PATH train connection, and proximity to well-known tourist attractions such as the Empire State Building) but can t seem to capitalize on these advantages. Most stores are forgettable. The JC Penney at the lower level had a recent makeover to make it look trendy and contemporary but they forgot to update their product offerings to match that makeover. Wikipedia has an even more depressing account of the history of the mall.
