Well the Bugle broke down and went for a cruise through the newly opened Harbor Point Mall on SBFZ. While I don't think there is enough parking for a mall this size that was about the only real complaint. Currently I would estimate that there is slightly more than half of the occupants are fully opened but you can see numerous signs and adverts telling you that there will be more to come.
The mall itself was very nice. Much better than a SM mall by a long shot. There was places to sit and watch the world go by and overall it was pleasant to the eyes. The AC was working great even with the doors being opened and closed all the time. The corridors were a bit narower than standard sized malls but I think they did a fairly decent job planning it out.
One of the most interseting aspects of this mall will be that it is going to have a real effect on the local residents dining options once it is fully opened. There are signs up for Johnny Rockets, TGIF, California Pizza kitchen, and a ClawDaddy's. There were at least a dozen smaller places already up and running with themes ranging from Mexican to upscale Sushi joints. Cabalen (a Filipino eat all you can buffet) was fully packed everytime I walked by there. Nowhere in our local area is there this kind of dining experience with so many choices to choose from.
All in all I will give the place a hearty recommendation once it has all of its establishments up and running.
