Tri-City Pavilions

  • ... that the J. C. Penney store at Arizona's Tri-City Mall was profitable, but it was closed after the mall owner insisted on a long-term lease deal? Source: [1]

5x expanded by TenPoundHammer (talk) and Raymie (talk). Nominated by Raymie (talk) at 21:39, 30 August 2020 (UTC).

  • The hook is rather uninteresting. You have so much more in the article; the oil masquerading as rain and other features are interesting; you could also play with the names of the stores. Yoninah (talk) 13:44, 1 September 2020 (UTC)
  • @Yoninah: A few other malls had "wonderfalls" like that around the same time period, so it isn't unique, and I don't see any funny DYKs emerging from the latter. Raymie (tc) 20:53, 1 September 2020 (UTC)
  • ALT1: ... that the $10 million Tri-City Mall in Mesa, Arizona, began to lose stores and customers ten years after opening, and even a multimillion-dollar renovation could not save it? Yoninah (talk) 21:29, 1 September 2020 (UTC)
  • That'd be fine, even if it reads to me like a lot of dead mall stories... Raymie (tc) 22:14, 1 September 2020 (UTC)
  • AFD closed as keep. Ready for full review. Yoninah (talk) 14:34, 4 September 2020 (UTC)
  • This article is a five-fold expansion and is new enough and long enough. The hook facts of ALT0 and ALT1 are cited inline, the article is neutral and I detected no copyright issues. A QPQ has been done. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 17:36, 4 September 2020 (UTC)
