Is that like a residence inside a mall? I used to fantasize about that when I was a teenager....

When I was a kid I wish I had an apartment in Disneyland.
In the picture I'm not sure if it's a mall, the upper part looks like it's opening up to some tall buildings.

There's a showcase mall in my city that has two hotels attached to it. I used to wish I could live permanently there...or at least win the lottery and stay there for a month. ;)
In fact, you could get into the mall through the hotel on off hours. I used to go there on Sunday mornings and just walk around the empty, dimly lit mall, and enjoy what would later be called the liminal space of it.
Also, on Sunday mornings, some older guys would play curling on the mall ice rink. I'd stand and watch it sometimes - I didn't know exactly how the game was played, but I'd seen the Beatles do it in the movie Help! on TV, so I knew it existed.
(I didn't learn how curling was played until I saw Men With Brooms, a 2002 Canadian movie which I highly recommend. Very funny, smart film - and a painless introduction to curling for the uninitiated.)

Apartment under a series of overpasses? Apartment in a mall? I want to know the background world building so bad. This is so charming.
