Variations on a main street: When a mall is an arcade
Sydney, Australia, is home to a regional variation on the mall: compact, multi‐level shopping centres located in existing main streets, and close to public transport, rather than blank‐walled boxes in a sea of parking. This paper describes this building type and its variations across the Sydney metropolitan area. It examines some dilemmas for urban design scholarship, which has focused on North American mall prototypes and glossed over regional variations.
