I can't figure out why anyone would travel to a culturally rich city like San Francisco, and then choose to spend time in a bland place like Westfield. It is like every other mall in the United States. GNC, Starbucks, Foot Locker, Guess, Lululemon, etc... I can get that in any (often dying) mall in America. Meanwhile, San Francisco's China Town in a few blocks away from Union Square, with a wealth of fantastic food, shopping, and original stores.
There is a reason these formulaic suburban style malls are dying. Perhaps we should not be too surprised when this happens in San Francisco.
