The Belz Mall in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee was never a hotspot. In the 90s and early 00s, the mall was home to liquidation stores, and by the mid 00s, it began to rapidly close most stores. I recently had a chance to go back and explore this mall, which is still open. During my visit they were in the midst of renovations. Very few stores remain. Since my visit, they have closed off one of the entrances and moved everything down to another entrance. I can't imagine this mall will be around much longer, but I have said that for quite some time now. Somehow, it continues to remain open.
