Atlantic Terminal Mall

Atlantic Terminal Mall houses most of the activity that I observed near the site.  Once we entered Fort Greene it was evident that most of the people that visit the mall are locals, and they tend to gather in small clusters around the neighborhood.  This could be in part because of the large construction happeing in the area.  Atlantic Terminal Mall has a transient relationship to its site and users. It is a major node for travel, Atlantic terminal is the third busiest terminal in New York, it is a place where people travel through but not necessarily travel to unless they where shopping.  The mall occupies almost 300,000 square feet of space and houses popular mid income level retail stores such as Target.
