 * Keep. Good stub on a major metropolitan mall. This deletion nomination is bogus. Rebecca 06:59, 4 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Bogus? Kindly assume good faith.  Vegaswikian 07:10, 4 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Am I reading the history correctly? Did you remove the AfD tag from the article after a vote to delete?  Vegaswikian 07:27, 4 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Uh, what the hell? I haven't touched the article since removing the bogus speedy tag. Rebecca 07:32, 4 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete seems like your average mall - ie, nothing that makes it stand out and there's no "significant coverage" mentioned of this mall.  Just listing a group of buildings for just being buildings would seem like a violation of WP:NOT Corpx 17:28, 4 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete, fails WP:RS. I found one article on the closure of the mall's ice rink but that's about it. Ten Pound Hammer  • (Broken clamshells•Otter chirps•Review?) 20:03, 4 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep This is a super-regional mall, with approx 1.2 million square feet of gross leasable area. Shopping malls says "A super-regional mall is a shopping mall with over 800,000 square feet (74,000 m²)  of gross leasable area, and which serves as the dominant shopping venue for the region in which it located." Malls of this size have been kept in recent AFDs, per a list of AFD results kept at the talk page of the rejected guideline WP:MALL.  Edison 20:52, 4 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Just because other super-regional malls have been kept isn't a very solid reason. I agree that it's a very sizeable mall, and it has a ton of anchor stores, but I really don't think size is enough for notability.

 * Strong Keep per Edison.--JForget 23:11, 4 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep size isn't everything, but it counts. I'm not sure what the border is, but this is above it. DGG (talk) 01:15, 5 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep - super-regional malls this massive would be a notable local landmark. In any event, there does seem to be some news coverage of this such as . -- Whpq 21:36, 6 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep per Edison. Major super-regional mall.  --Oakshade 22:47, 6 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep of course a super-regional mall is going to be notable. Burntsauce 17:35, 9 August 2007 (UTC)
