The Dayton mall had been around for a number of years, so it has definitely stood the test of time. However, it has some bumps and bruises to show for it. My wife and I went to the mall to grab a quick present for a friend, and nothing quickly noted some unsavory characters who were lurking around. One was even kneeling down behind a vending machine staring at the shoppers passing by. It should be noted there were a few men doing the same at odd ends of the building, while a huddle of security guards goofed off together down the hallway. A final thing that seemed incredibly unusual were these little robotic animals on wheels that little kids can rent for the day. They are somewhat fast and take up a good amount of room. The kids who drive these around are usually poorly supervised. Aside from the dodging the creepy dudes and the stamped of unruly, animal-driving children (bad combo), there is a good selection of stores at this location. Enter at your own risk. Bring steel toed shoes and carry your firearm if you have your license.
