The interior of the original CUMBERLAND MALL was a showcase of '70s Mod decor. The Center Court was especially noteworthy. In addition to a small lake, fountains, bridges and tropical plants, it included the "People Pavilion." This circular platform, suspended high above the court area, was accessed by an open elevator. There was seating for fifty shoppers.
