Jenks Outlet Mall starting?

One positive though is that I do like that this is in a way going in an "infill" type are near Jenks core.  I hope that their downtown and nearby areas continue to infill and grow more dense with more shopping, businesses, living, attractions, etc.  I can see Jenks eventually evolving its core to being more pedestrian/transit/bike friendly.  Those areas will be more likely to continue grow in the near future, even if surrounding areas do not and some areas that are more sprawling suburban go fallow so to speak.

If they had made the design mixed-use it would probably be a better retail destination, better economically, better aesthetically and been a proof of concept for Simon to make a years long transition away from dying models. Oh well.
