It's been close to 10 years since the last time I visited the Altoona area so I really don't know how the mall is doing there (the Logan Valley Mall).

I just did a search and it looks like Macy's closed there earlier this year, leaving them with a single anchor store: JC Penney. From their website, it looks like only about half the stores are occupied, so it's probably not going to last much longer either.
