How Did One Mall Go From Powering a City to Standing Nearly Empty? | Inspector James
Once, this downtown mall wasn’t just a place to shop. It was a financial engine that helped support an entire city.
Located in the heart of San Francisco, Westfield San Francisco Centre anchored jobs, transit, nearby businesses, and city revenue for decades. At its peak, millions of visitors passed through its doors every year. Today, nearly 80% of the space sits empty.
This video examines how a retail giant tied to Westfield Group quietly unraveled — leaving behind abandoned debt, disappearing foot traffic, and a downtown struggling to adjust.
Rather than focusing on blame, this documentary explores the deeper forces behind the collapse: rising operating costs, shifting consumer behavior, supply chain pressures, and the changing role of downtown retail in America’s largest cities.
What happens when a place that once symbolized stability fades without a clear ending? And what does that mean for cities built around assumptions that no longer hold?
This is not just a story about one mall.
It’s a look at a pattern reshaping downtowns across the United States.
