When City Creek opened it was so great, so exciting, so inspired that the church was really really happy they could report the gross dollars that the Maul was producing.

It's been awfully quiet on the news release front for some time.

Did the reputation of the church and what it actually stands for start to register in people's heads? Or what?

I remember when Nordstrom threatened to take all of it's stores out of Utah when City Creek was announced. Nordstrom wanted to go to the GateWay. Nordstrom ended up with, as I think most of the shops at City Creek, dirt cheap rent. Now I've heard the Nordstrom at City Creek isn't doing that great.

Does anybody here have anymore info on the business condition of City Creek. Have businesses threatened to leave yet.

1.2.3 lets go shopping !

This video sums it up nicely.

Thanks for the link, Dorothy.

And Nephi Goodmanson, whomever you are, I salute you!

Great video Dorothy....

Someone commented;
"The Mormon Empire holds hands with Babylon the Great. The true church of Jesus Christ? Forget it."

I think there is enough evidence that the morg empire is the
whore of all the earth!!!

How would the members feel if we turn the table on them???

lower floor has already closed. When I drive by the high rise condo at night it's mostly dark. I can't imagine that it's over 25% occupied.

Sing to When upon life's Billows...


When upon life's billows and you need to shop
When you are discouraged at the parking lots
Come to CITY CREEEEK,..... each and everyone
And it will surprise you what God's corp-or-ation's done

C....ount your mone...y, hundreds...fives and ones
C....ount your credit cards and see what sales are on
Ignore the home.......less outside the temple walls
Count how endless tithing had.... no effect at all.


Are you ever burdened with the lines at Gap
Do your bags seem heavy as you shop at Mr. Mac
C......ount your money... and GAZE up in the sky
Ask yourself why Condo prices... are so high.

When you shop at City Creek with diamonds and the gold
Think that Christ has promised you His wealth un....told
C-o-u-n-t your many blessings, with Credit on your side
No reward in heaven,... just this palace in the sky

So amid the conflict at the check out stands
Do not be discouraged at five billion spent
C...ount your many blessings at the tithing you sent in
Question not the leaders that would be co-mitt-ing sin

C.....ount your money, hundreds, fives and ones
C....ount your money and scorn-those that cannot come
C....ount the tithing... sent in by me and you
Count the money and ignore Mormon8 verse32

Are you ever burdened with a load of debt?
Does the cross seem heavy when you're tithed to death
Count your many blessings as your house is reposessed
And keep ever faithful in the state of most depressed.


So, amid the conflict whether great or small,
Do not be disheartened, God is owner of the mall;
Count... your many blessings, angels will attend,
Help and comfort give you till your shopping ends

You must send this to cricket at the salamander so that it is preserved for eternity.

I love your parody which is spot on!

Bravo! Well-done!! Hahaha...

Lol. Well done.

(And I'm so ashamed I still know the tune really well)

Bravo!

Very funny!

Pure awesomeness!

I had the opportunity to come to Salt Lake this last week to attend a convention. I went to the Gateway Center and City Creek. I liked Gateway better. It basically looked like they were trying to copy the Gateway.

I head from one of the managers at the Apple store that their Sq footage sales are down from the Gateway, the City Creek store is like three times larger. I also heard that Fashion Place Apple store is busier even though it's smaller. Now if you can kill Apple sales that says something. Of course I hear Apple gets free rent.

I've been catching TV commercials for the City Creek mall on Fox Utah, at least. Now they're trying to get locals to shop there?

I'd think that The Corp. wouldn't want ALL THESE QUESTIONS ABOUT $ DANGLING... BUT YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS, They Do.


I say, Let 'em Dangle!

My Sh!tty Creek Mall! Goddam Mongorians.

More like up $hit Creek.

Got paddle?

I made an attempt at poetry also to share how I felt when I finally gave in and visited The Mall. The corridors were sparsely populated and not even the aroma of food seemed to invite me in. i too, noticed the sad, sagging homeless close by.

The Mall

I had to view
Part didn't want to
But one drug the other in
To see this so-called mall of sin.

It was breath-taking
I agree
Built to impress
Entirely.

See the temple
See the mall
Don't forget
We built them all.

But the homeless
Sitting near by
Said it all
With the blink of her eye.

I sit and sit
I wait and wait
Hearing the refrain
The mall is great.

Great to who?
To me, to you?
Hardly, why no...
I dread the snow.

post it the mall's page at the salamander:

Thanks for creating this.

FYI - Somehow I have succeeded in not even coming close to visiting the Mormon Monument to Monetary Malarky. LOL
