They have recently just built a new humongous mall in my town.  I have been
out there twice and the handicapped parking is ridiculous.  I don't think
the designers had any notion of what was needed for the handicapped.  At J C
Penney's, looking at the front of the store, the handicapped parking is at
the extreme right end of the store and the entrance is in the middle.  At
the movie theater, none is in the parking lot at the front of the movie.  No
signs show where it is.  I asked the person at the ticket window and she
said it was over at the side of the building!  I won't be going to that mall
very often.  When we went into Penney's, they only had wheelchairs and would
have to take a clerk to push you around if you were there by yourself!  Now,
that is dumb planning.  They could afford a couple of electric carts for
that expense!  I expressed my dissatisfaction to the manager of the store,
but doubt if anything will get fixed.  Also, the wheelchairs were all the
way to the back at the service counter (yes, the service counter was all the
way to the back, no side entrances available).  I know nobody here can do
anything, but I just had to whine to people who would understand.

The mall is one of those new designs where every store opens to the
outside - no more closed in mall where people can go from store to store
without getting in the heat or cold or rain, etc. No more walking area for
the elderly.
