Baldwin Hills Mall could be any mall in the Valley -- any mall with maximum
security. The anchor department stores are stocked well, or better than any
others in their respective chains. In addition to the gauntlet of impulse-
buy carts and wagons, there are also beepers, cell phones and
put-your-picture-on-a-mug kiosks.
The combination of community staples, like American Savings Bank, Bank of
America, Founder's National Bank and an AT&T Phone Center, stand
shoulder to shoulder with more innocent themes like The Disney Store, Kay
Bee Toys and See's Candies. Mix in the cultural and political interests of
Michael Johnson's Magic Theaters and the Museum of Afro-American Art, and
you've got Los Angeles' answer to rebuilding communities.
For those fashion minded teens, load up on all the necessities at the GAP or
T.J. Maxx. When you get hungry you'll find familiar mall food at Taco Bell,
Hot Dog on a Stick, Orange Julius and Rally's Hamburgers. -- WEBSITE-TO-GO!
