A modern Dixie Square? City View Center (Garfield Heights, OH)

[Hudsons81]

There is a power center in suburban Cleveland that may remind you a bit of the late Dixie Square Mall. It opened in 2006 and has always been facing numerous problems, mostly relating to methane gas which is mostly to blame for it's quick downfall (and crime had nothing to do with it), which was triggered by the abrupt closing of the center's Walmart (which was never a Supercenter) in 2008, thus, this power center is the perfect example of not correctly building on a landfill. Even though it's only eight years old, it's already nearly truly abandoned!

Yikes!  Sounds like Parkway Center Mall in Pittsburgh, which likewise suffered a whole
host of problems (including gas leaks) as a result of having been built haphazardly on
landfill.

That one however took thirty years to die.
Yours must hold some sort of record.

I've seen this shopping center elsewhere online. The Walmart only lasted 2 years (opened 2006, closed 2008) and that's when a lot of other tenants began to leave too. There's even an unfinished building on the property that I believe was going to be Old Navy.
