Multi-million Dollar Shopping Centers/Residences/Buildings in General.

I was in San Antonio, and they've been doing a lot of MAJOR building at "The Rim" on the edge of town, also The Shops La Cantera, I know they do this in other states, but to what extent? It's surprising how fancy you can make a McDonald's... There's also a HUGE living area called Eilan that they've been building for a long time. What do y'all think of these type of buildings?

I have no problem with high end retail shopping, but I despise the master planned communities. There's obviously a demand for them though, so whatever. I don't have to live in them.

Are they at least upgrading the roads near the new shipping to accommodate the significant increase in traffic?  That was one of the conditions for the newest ones that went in where I live.

In recent years, NorthPark Center, a mall in Dallas, added on a new north wing, a partial second floor, added a new anchor (Nordstrom), changed out another anchor (JCPenney left, Foley's took its place with a big new store, which is now a Macy's),
added an AMC theater and a new food court area.  The expansion brought NorthPark to 2,350,000 sq. ft. and reports annual sales of $1 billion.
