Read the following short essay. Then complete it with a strong one-paragraph conclusion that includes the key elements of a conclusion that you chose in the Check-In activity. Write your conclusion on a sheet of paper. I agree that our mall should be repurposed. It is no longer used as a shopping venue, and it is becoming a neglected, run-down place. When I was little, we used to travel to the mall to shop for everything from groceries to furniture. Store by store, the options dwindled—and today, only a handful of retail stores remain. We need to fill those spaces with housing and offices. Because nobody is renting store space, the mall is falling into disrepair. Just last month, in fact, it was reported that a chunk of plaster fell from the ceiling. Renting or selling to businesses and real estate developers would mean that improvements would start to happen. In conclusion,
repurposing the mall is the best solution for revitalizing the area and avoiding further neglect. By converting the empty retail spaces into housing and offices, we can breathe new life into the mall, attracting residents and businesses alike. This will not only generate much-needed revenue for the area but also create a sense of community and vibrancy. Additionally, by renting or selling to businesses and real estate developers, the necessary funds will be available to initiate repairs and improvements, ensuring that the mall is restored to its former glory. It is evident that repurposing the mall is not only a practical and viable option but also a necessary step towards revitalizing and rejuvenating the neglected space.
