Then again, the mall seems to lack any real direction. Similar to Lansdowne in many ways while Guildford continues to be the mall of choice for Surrey.

I do agree... Guildford is a really nice mall and IMO one of the best in the Lower Mainland. I feel that one of the things that really hold back Central City is the food court. It feels small and cramped. And if the mall does expand, I hope that they take a page out of the Guildford mall's books and add a really good foodcourt.
Another thing that the Guildford mall does is really anchor the neighbourhood well. You have chain restaurants nearby (like Milestones) and small businesses across the street that really make Guildford a very decent shopping district in comparison to downtown Vancouver and Metrotown.
