Pheasant Lane Mall
It's a bit past the stub phase, but i'm wondering what to add now. More statistics? List of stores? Events going on in the mall? More about the mall's impact on the city as a whole? Where does this article go from here? karmafist 10:46, 24 December 2005 (UTC)


 * Did I miss what makes it any different from a thousand other American malls? alteripse 13:23, 24 December 2005 (UTC)
 * Apparently you did. That's why I'm here. karmafist 16:37, 24 December 2005 (UTC)
 * We all need a raison d'etre. But what is the difference? alteripse 20:24, 28 December 2005 (UTC)
 * There we go. That's what i'm trying to brainstorm with you. What would make this article more interesting? I mean, there are a few facts in there making it fairly notable (largest mall in NH, would be one of the largest cities in NH if it was a city and you counted people in the mall during the holiday season, its a mecca for sales tax dodgers from Mass., it transformed Nashua as a whole, etc.)
 * I do have a few ideas for things I could add..
 * History: Originally, the land which the mall was built upon almost became a dog track. However, in the 16 years since its opening, the almost empty landscape from Exit 1 to the Mass border now has zero open space.
 * Rivalries: It creates one of the focal points for one of the three anchors of the Golden Triangle, and the other two also have malls that drastically transformed the commercial development zones surrounding it.
 * More Indepth on the Mall itself: It's hard not to go into cruft here, but one of the mall's plaza pimps the local New England motif with a Ralph Waldo Emerson poem surrounding a 40x40 ft.(or so) byzantine mosaic of New England scenes on the floor.
 * Stats: Parking spaces, stores, square footage, rental costs per sq. ft, gross sales, etc.
 * Maps: Both of the mall and surrounding it.

Other than that, the only real difference is that this mall has been a major part of my life. I've had three jobs there, and spent countless hours there while growing up. It's unique to me, but I guess sometimes on Wikipedia, that just isn't enough. karmafist 06:46, 30 December 2005 (UTC)
