Malls and stores alike in South Florida have started to reopen with social distancing restrictions to protect customers. In the mall, customers will see social distancing signs, there will be a limit on how many people are allowed on elevators and customers will notice plenty of sanitizer throughout the mall. Other malls that have reopened on Monday include Coral Square, The Falls, Florida Keys Outlet Marketplace, Miami International Mall and Sawgrass Mills. The Village of GulfStream Park in Broward County will slowly open their shops and restaurants. The outdoor mall plans to have
80% to 90% of their tenants up and running for business, and they want to have all of their businesses open by next week. Officials say the safety of their customers is the outdoor venue’s bottom line. Dadeland Mall reopens Monday, May 18.
