Dead Malls Season 6 Episode 3 - West Oaks Mall (TX)

While down in H-town for the first time in December of 2022, one of the many malls we were visiting for the first time was the western suburbs West Oaks Mall. And while in subsequent trips I would return to all the others for more footage.. West Oaks was the one mall I couldn’t see again. As just months after visiting it would close for good.. West Oaks was the cities great suburban expirement, with developers Foleys and JMB Realty trying to create a modern high end shopping center that would catch the cities spontaneous sprawl. While so many relatively new malls like Greenspoint and Willowbrook were already in the shadow of blight, West Oaks hoped to change its fate before it was even built. And look where that got us today, yet another now completely abandoned mall waiting for a future.. How did it get like this? Join me tonight as we finish out our first season saga with the Houston Expedition. Join me as we tell the story of, explore, and see West Oaks Mall in its final few months..
