FROMSTEVEN: Our cover story this month takes a look at how Grapevine Mills—in spite of trends working against malls nationwide—is keeping foot tra c strong, in part by nding tenants that provide entertainment and experiential options for guests. The implications for the mall’s other businesses, and the surrounding areas in Grapevine, are signi cant. We hope you’ll give that story a read—and Happy New Year! Steven Ryzewski, EDITOR
