Well, apparently in my absence of the area during my stay at college, I've overlooked a few things. Living in Ann Arbor and commuting to Dearborn, I never really have to go north too often to Hall Road. However, talking to a friend of mine who lives out that way, they informed me that a new mall is going in. It's plan is to be developed in the next few years.
The first thing I asked myself was, what? It seemed a little strange, considering Lakeside Mall is basically 2 and a half streets to the west. Putting big complexes like these so close to each other just didn't seem to make sense.
Oh well, I suppose adding more commericialism to the eastern side now will lessen the overall choke point that is between Hayes and Schoenherr. This will make travel a little more difficult, though, to most of the locations I travel to.

I think that will definitely add some flair to your paper. You should include this new knowledge in it.
How do you see commercialism affecting the community's overall atmosphere. How do more and more malls/big-box stores/etc. impact how a community sees itself?
