Parking Lot

• 80 % of the parking lot was filled

• Major problems were traffic, crime, and accidents.

• The mall serves as a place for entertainment and

Questions cont.

• I don’t think the problems can be minimized because it is a mall. The biggest problem, which is air pollution due to emissions, could not be changed because that would require all customers to have a certain type of car.

• In terms of the environment, we would probably make a LEED certified mall.
