A Visit to Plaza Del Sol (FL)

[@TheCubeTube]

I love when malls are able to be redeveloped successfully! Nice vid!

Yes, it's such a breath of fresh air and awesome to witness. If only it was like this for all malls. Yes, I know I can dream.

The aesthetics of this mall are very interesting. I also like how this is a Latin American themed mall. That's really cool. I think this is possibly the first time I hear of a mall being culturally themed. You said it was built in the 80's but to me it looks so 90's.😊💖💗💜🌟

Highly recommend you check out the Plaza Fiesta mall in Dekalb, Georgia. It is a great Latin mall with interesting history

I'm guessing the fountain is where the Christmas decorations are being displayed? Maybe I'm wrong? If I'm right, I would've loved to see how it looks like. It's also nice to see a mall that's being used instead of being abandoned. Hopefully it stays that way for years to come. Good job on another entertaining video Doomie.😊

I admittedly had to do a quick double-take since we also have a mall called Plaza del Sol here in Puerto Rico, although it's bigger and more modern looking. Also huge "There I am Gary, there I am." moment for my country at 3:12. Really nice looking mall. It gives me the vibes of one of the smaller malls down here, like Centro del Sur.

Nice to see the mall was able to be saved!

[@ms.zelman3032]

Yes😊

We have a couple malls like this one in Texas. PlazAmerica's Mall in Houston and La Gran Plaza Mall in Fort Worth. Both of those malls are doing really well, and both survived. Both malls were nearly dying before the change to a mall focusing on Latinos. There is another mall in Pasadena Texas, called Macroplaza, which made a couple of attempts to rebrand as a Latino Mall. The full plan never got put into place and the mall is in dire straights now with only 5 businesses open.

this was my mall in kissimmee.....i moved there in 91-92....where the dd's is there was a wal mart there!....and theres a small school there too which was not in the video but, was a movie theater back in the day..(which i watched batmen forever in 1995 lol) Then across the street was another movie theater. Years later they found a dead body in the dumpster of the movie theater:(..........i love this lil mall....but the area isnt the same any more:/.....great vid!

Another great video doomie!

[@Mom2my4blessings]

I think this mall looks nice, bright, and sunny. It’s being used well as a mixed use space. I’m happy that the mall was saved.

[@ms.zelman3032]

Me too.😊

[@blueblousedesigns]

I love your videos, especially the one of The Houston County Galleria

[@RollerskateKyle]

I really like this mall. I think the marketplace area looks really cool

[@Kavzics]

Gracie Barras location use to be an arcade many years ago.

[@jeremyud]

It's a nice example of a repurposed mall! The best candidates for that are the smaller malls.

[@ms.zelman3032]

Yes, exactly.😊

[@youngloudandsnottytv]

I have that same van at time @1:02

[@youngloudandsnottytv]
