Before it was a shopping center, the place where Scottsdale Fashion Square now stands was just a stretch of Arizona desert with a drug store on it. Back then, the only reason to go to a store was to get something you needed. Today, top shopping centers are giving people novelty and excitement. Kim Choukalas is with Macerich, the company that owns the mall.  She gives a walking tour of the many ways the mall is changing to keep pace with modern tastes.
