The current owner of Albuquerque’s Winrock Mall is proposing making part of the mall outdoors to include cafes and shopping. This would seem like a hybrid of the ABQ Uptown and Coronado malls. The developer is planning to unveil its plans on Thursday to area residents.
I would love to see Winrock revitalized. It ailed along for years until it was nothing more than a mere ghost of its former self.
What I see the area needing is a grocery store. Certainly not a Wal-Mart, but a nice grocery store for area residents to shop in. There currently isn’t an easily accessible store for uptown residents.
If I had a vote, I would put in an open green space. It wouldn’t need to be a large area because of water shortages in the desert, but a nice oasis in the middle of all the commercialism there.
