Monstrous NY shopping mall that aimed to spark troubled downtown devolves into bane of Dem-run city
A New York Post dispatch on how a $200 million mall built to resurrect New Rochelle's downtown became a dim, rat-infested ghost of itself — and what residents actually think of the spin.
- It's like Oz, and Oz isn't real. And who's the wizard?
- It just sucks. It was a really bad idea and it didn't work. They were trying to make it cool, but it just sucks.
- The smell of urine, elevators not working, rats and plenty of homeless in areas of the garage — the fire system does not work, most exit signs are not lit, and the bottom level is littered with construction debris.
- It's a mall next to a main street, and they call themselves separate. You don't have people saying, 'Hey, let's go to New Roc tonight.' It's antithetical to a successful project.
- “Now it's dead. I grew up coming here and it used to be so lively. Now, it's all dim and dead.”
