Title: My Visit to Brookfield Square
Tags: Brookfield Malls Books Waukesha
Blog Entry: Have you been to Brookfield Square lately? That old image had to go and for the most part, it’s gone. WOW, The mall’s been under renovation and I must say as they put this new image together – I do like many of the changes that were made. I’m not sure if I get the design of the floors? But the overall design of main corridor, the tall stone columns, the ceiling beams with the accent lighting are nothing short of remarkable. I’m not sure what the final look will be for the food court, just please tell me they’re not leaving that ceiling exposed – even painted, it’s way to busy for me. Regardless of my vision of the perfect design I really feel they invested well for both the businesses and the consumers. For those that don’t already know, the mall added a Starbucks kiosk and being smack dab in the middle of the mall, it makes for the perfect place to take the load off your feet – it works for me – beside the typical café style seating, they also have several over sized leather chairs to relax in – which is where you’ll usually find me when I stop. The next time you’re out that way, stop in and see the changes. I very seldom stop at the mall without browsing the shelves at BN, and this last time was no exception – My newest book “The Answer” by John Assaraf & Murray Smith. I did also try to find out if there was a DVD of the book as there is with “The Secret”, It didn’t take but a minute for the BN help to look it up and tell that there is not one at this time. I must say, a couple of weeks ago I tried to find this book locally in Downtown Waukesha, as we’re browsing around during the Friday Nite Live event, but the cashier that night must not have thought I really wanted the book , I was disappointed that the cashier at the book store offered absolutely no help in me getting a copy of the book. At the very least, I would have expected him to ask if he could order it for me. I do hope this was an isolated incident because of all the commotion with the band outside his front door, but I might never know now. I wonder how long I would have stood at the counter at Divino Gelato Café if they thought for a moment I really didn’t want to try their fabulous Italian Ice Cream, they however made sure I left with what I went in their for and it was great! Thank you for the service. Divino Gelato Café was probably the busiest business on Main Street that Friday night, and it’s clear as to why. Divino Gelato Cafe
