The "two major malls in Seattle" is just the bankruptcy of General Growth.

They own more than 200 malls around America.

Many more firms will file for bankruptcy.

Media firms like radio and television stations are going to happen soon. Their revenues are down 60% and their largest expense is interest on their debt.

The article you linked to stated:

of General Growth Properties.

GGP took the less usual approach of using mortgages and unsecured bank debt. Those

>>Two major malls in Seattle area <<

did not

>>declare bankruptcy<<

Then Elroy Jetson ate what you cooked.
