Could a list of stores and restaurants that were once in the Rolling Acers Mall be put on the page? I know that Wendy's used to be in the food court. Some stores were also former chains. --24.147.1.197 (talk) 22:41, 29 March 2014 (UTC)Jacob ChesleyReply

Replacing that ghastly lead section pic

edit

The pic of Rolling Acres as it appeared in January 2014, all boarded up, is what currently appears above the description box. I suggest we change it. There's an immaculate pic of the mall's storefont circa 1992 on a website called Detroit Urbex, and because I don't own that picture, I don't want to be the one to try to upload it because I wouldn't know how to give proper recognition, etc. But regardless, I think the lead section pic above the description box should show the mall when it was at least still in operation. I notice that when public figures pass away, current pictures are replaced w/ pics from when they were much younger. Perhaps a similar criteria with widely known brands?
