The newly renovated and revitalized Port Place Mall seems to prove you can attract people if there is something to attract them, and provide them with convenient parking.
This new road running through the site offers convenient store front, angle parking on both sides of the street which seem to turn over fairly quickly. This is in addition to 'regular' mall parking both front and back and on the rooftop.
You're right, the mall seems to be quite busy, and because of this, I find it fairly difficult to find parking on this street (either side), so the turnover's not that good IMO. Traffic is often bottlenecked too, people waiting for someone to back out, or all the stop signs impeding flow. I usually end up parking in the lot.
