I remember when the Foothills Mall was new and a BIG DEAL in Fort Collins. Located way south of town, the new mall was the final nail in the coffin for downtown. The last of the good stores downtown moved to Foothills and downtown turned into a dilapidated eyesore. Ten years later, in the early 80s, downtown started its journey to becoming the Old Town we know today. That journey took until the mid-1990s. By then, Foothills was at its peak. Fast forward to today and Old Town is rocking, while Foothills is a dilapidated eyesore, on its way to becoming the catalyst of a Midtown Revival. Our challenge is to keep both parts of town vital and productive simultaneously.
