Is this level of shuffling normal at healthier malls though? Maybe a lot of these stores leased around the same time and are now renewing their leases, but I'd think there'd be a little bit more balance. But hey, "coming soon" wallboards throughout the mall for already-existing stores does seem to still fill the illusion that the mall is thriving and that newer things are coming - better than a blank wallboard or a visible empty storefront.
Just FYI, Cartier has a boutique at HPV.
And to answer your question about shuffling at other malls across the country, no. But we've already established that Dallas is a quirky market.
The shift from The Galleria to Highland Park Village/NorthPark/Knox here still happened rather recently, like under 20 years ago, so it probably still has an effect on how the market works today. Luckily these centers aren’t that far apart from each other, so it works out better for everyone.
