Reflection #2
My selected space was the Northridge Fashion Center in Northridge, California. The
Northridge Fashion Center to represents a place to hang out and be a consumerism space. A
consumerism space because what people go to the buy is usually to buy stuff. The structure of
the space does not have a specific structure form the outside. The mall just has two stories to it,
with a theater, restaurants, and a food market place on the outside. The purpose of the Fashion
Center is to go hang out, eat and spend money. It seems as though the people in the lower and
middle class shop more at the Northridge mall. To my thought it is because the mall does not
have any higher class expectation as The Grove or the Beverly Hills mall would have. There was
various types of race but there was mostly Hispanics, Whites and Blacks. There were a few
Asian but not much. There was the same amount of females and males throughout the time I
went. There was also more young people than there was older ages. Some where there to just
hang out and others were there just to eat. I did notice that there was no security when my group
and I were there. It was about 1 in the afternoon till about 2:30 in the evening. Some of the stores
we walked into looked at use as if we did not belong in there like Macys. I noticed that the
benches on the outside did not have the bump as Mike Davis talked about in Fortress Los
Angeles. There were two fountains. One in the inside and one on the outside. The food courts
was located on the second floor. Most of the food places in the food court were Asian food. They
had a Japanese, Chinese, Korean and Thai food place. There was also a pizza place, a burger

place, Mediterranean, Mexican place and a Subway. There was a diversity of food place outside
the food court as well, like ice cream and pretzel shops.
