Eleven months ago I documented the final stages of the demise of the Desert Fashion Plaza in Palm Springs in my 'Out of Fashion' albums. Now, from some of the same vantage points, I have photographed the site today and the early stages of construction of its replacement, the Palm Springs Promenade Mall. It is planned to include a Kimpton Hotel which might be an irritation to the adjacent Hyatt. The commercial logic of replacing a failed mall with another mall escapes me but I look forward to its opening. 200_2_P1010304
