I left the following comment on my entry Vox on America's dying malls as failed third spaces, a tale of the Retail Apocalypse at Booman Tribune.
The Hawthorne Mall is notorious. I first saw it in its abandoned state four years ago in "Gone Girl." It also served as a location in "Westworld." At least Hollywood uses it, just not for shopping.

Funny you should mention the Laguna Hills Mall. Retail Archeology has two videos of it shot just last month.

In this episode we take a look at Laguna Hills Mall in Laguna Hills, CA. This dead mall was supposed to be renovated and renamed Five Lagunas. However the Macy's at this mall suddenly closed and brought all work to a halt.

In part 2 of my look at Laguna Hills Mall in Laguna Hills, CA we focus on the exterior of this dead mall.

Based on the description in the first video, I'd be surprised if nalbar is referring to it.
The comment posted. Later that day, I returned to Booman Tribune and saw that the number of comments had decreased by one. Sure enough, the comment above had disappeared. This was my reaction.
I've seen hidden comments before, but not deleted ones. As Jack Sparrow would say, "That's interesting, that's very interesting."
I'm still not sure what happened.
