Several malls across the United States are implementing new policies in response to various concerns. Brooklyn Atlantic Terminal mall has banned minors without an adult following safety concerns, as reported by FOX 5 New York (YouTube). Similar age restrictions are being introduced at popular malls in the Los Angeles area, including Del Amo Mall in Torrance, California, where a shopper commented, "The ones that are running around like a muck, they’re teenagers." In Marin County, plans to redevelop Northgate mall into housing are causing unease among residents who fear it will disrupt the area's peaceful setting. The redevelopment aims to transform the nearly 800,000-square-foot mall into an open-air main street experience with housing. Additionally, juveniles will no longer be allowed at Del Amo Mall without adults on certain days due to an increase in violent brawls.
