I was out at Pier Park tonight, and it was crazy – and I don’t even think it was a busy night. There were people everywhere.
I was talking to the mall manager the other day and he was telling me that the place really starts to fill up around 5:30 and stays busy until close to midnight! Almost every time I go there, I can’t hardly find a parking place in the big lot on the east and usually end up having to walk a while.
I was talking to someone the other day about how there seems to have been so much pent up demand, now that we have great shopping, it almost doesn’t seem like enough.
There are almost 100 stores open now, with more than 30 more slated to open in the near future.
I’d say Pier Park is a huge success, and keeps getting better.
More pictures after the break.
