Hah! I know the exact one you're talking about, next to the Regal cinema. My wife and I were amazed that CC moved in there. They opened up that place almost at the same time as the bankruptcy was first announced and then had lots of ads about how they were hiring new employees. We were wondering how they could possibly be expanding like that while organizing for bankruptcy.

What amazes me more though is the empty shop at Fairfax Corner that used to be an Organized Living. That shopping mall is absurdly successful, yet that store has sat empty for something like 2-3 years now. I've never understood why they were unable to re-lease that space, given the traffic that goes through that area.
