About this episode
Shopping malls are very big business globally and Australia's no different, with the twelve largest centres earning over $1 billion annually.
Initially designed in the 1960s to accommodate hundreds of cars, targeting the suburban housewife, today they come in all sizes - from the big guns, to mini guns - and are much more responsive to diverse cultural needs, changing consumer trends, and the latest in entertainment.
