Your shoes click on the cool tile floor as you thread your way through the crowd to the bench. Sitting down, you pull out your notebook and listen to snippets of conversations as people walk by. Consider these questions. The Bayshore Mall in Eureka has a multitude of interests and uses. Through an interview and survey process, I was able to gain input as to the deciding factors behind going to the mall, and the effectiveness of the mall in extracting economic value from its customers.
School is out for the day.
While stationed on a bench in the central part of the Bayshore Mall, a low hum surrounds me. People walk by, each caught up in their own world. Fragmented dialogues filter into my ears through the general noise. The different types of people at the Mall are infinite. A group of youths, plastered with make-up to appear older, stroll by me.
