A list with only four entries is hardly a list at all. This is an extremely inappropriate way to handle this topic, as three of these four malls are notable enough to have their own, standalone articles, as seen by the work in my sandbox. (Fashion Outlets would be the odd one out.) all four malls are notable enough for their own articles.

Note that I have already created a decent-length, well-sourced article on Lockport Mall, and am about to do so with The Summit and Rainbow Centre. Once those are made into full articles, this article would be rendered almost entirely redundant -- doesn't a list have to have at least five possible entries to be a list? -- and the terrible quality of the writing ("these factors combined to slaughter the malls of the 1970s and '80s") would have to be axed either way. As for Fashion Outlets, it can be a redirect to an appropriate section on the community, since it's the only one out of the four that would be unlikely to support a full article.
