The Northgate Mall in Lafayette, Louisiana, was once considered the place to be by local business owners. Christopher Rubin, a licensed cosmetologist at the mall, reminisces about the mall’s heyday and expresses hope for its revival. Over the years, the mall has faced challenges as businesses have moved to the more modern South side of town, but Rubin believes that it still has great potential.
New businesses like Cristal Henry’s Glam House are starting to open at the Northgate Mall, in the hopes of attracting more local shoppers and encouraging other businesses to consider the north side of Lafayette. Despite misconceptions about the mall being empty, there are actually 35 shops operating, most of which are local businesses that provide valuable services to the community.
Ebony Roberts, a former teacher turned skincare business owner, has been at the mall for six years and attests to the growth and potential of the area. She emphasizes that there is a strong sense of community pride in the north side of Lafayette and that by supporting local businesses, residents can help build up the area for future generations.
Business owners and locals alike are optimistic about the future of the Northgate Mall and believe that with continued support and investment, the north side can thrive once again. By preserving the legacy of the community and attracting more businesses to the area, they hope to see the mall become a vibrant hub for both residents and visitors.
