As retail stores have struggled in recent years, malls have become vacant leaving some to wonder what to do with the coveted space in overcrowded cities. One such mall, the CambridgeSide Mall, will get a new life, although it will take many years before the project will be complete. New England Development has reimagined the CambridgeSide Mall into a mixed-use building, and after receiving approval from the Cambridge City Council last week, they will be able to turn the space into office space, residential housing, and street-level retail.
