More changes in Crossroads Mall area

First Waldenbooks closed, now this (Waterloo Courier):

Members of the Waterloo Planning, Programming and Zoning Commission voted unanimously Tuesday to recommend a site plan amendment for developers looking to tear down the former Bonanza Steakhouse restaurant at 2027 Crossroads Blvd. and replace it with a nearly 14,000-square-foot retail mall. … Bonanza closed Oct. 18 after nearly 28 years in business.

I’ve eaten at that Bonanza many, many times. Now there isn’t one in Waterloo, Cedar Falls, or Marshalltown. And Bishop’s is closed too.

Besides all that, Crossroads Mall itself is in foreclosure. It and the surrounding area are now much different from the 1990s.

This is a timed post.
