Houston Galleria

Opened in 1970, Houston's Galleria is the original, in the sense that it was the first mall in the U.S. to fuse a mall with hotels and office towers, not to mention an ice skating rink bigger than Rockefeller Center. The mixed-use concept has been used in other malls since then, but this was the first, and therefore important in the evolution of malls. Modeled after the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele in Milan, Italy. Currently about 375 stores and 50 restaurants.

the Galleria (with a small t) owns all others, except the original in Milan.

Gallerina

The waif-like girls in opaque tights who rule the art galleries in Chelsea and other art districts. Like ballerinas, they are generally delicate-looking, coiffed, and can come off as cold.

As we perused the art, we tried to avoid the gallerinas.

the Galleria

The Galleria is a fucking massive mall in Houston, TX. It is the 7th largest in America, currently having 375 stores. Most of the mall is built underground, with the top floor mainly at street-level. There are hotel and office towers combined into the mall as well. The entire mall itself is split up into 4 different wings; Galleria I, II, III, and IV, but each wing might as well be it's own mall because this shit is just massive. There are countless designer fashion stores, over 50 dining and restaurant businesses, a 20,000 sq ft. ice skating rink, and basically a store for anything you need. But if you've never been before, it's impossible to find the store that you're looking for without a map. One wrong turn and 2 miles later, you'll end up at the wrong end of the mall. Parking any time between noon to 5pm is just a joke. There are an assload of parking garages too, so if you manage to find a spot, don't forget how you got there or you'll never get out.

Chick 1: Hey, wanna go shopping at the Galleria?

Chick 2: I don't feel like walking 26 miles to find the store I want.

Chick 1: Bitch.

Gallubies

Word used as a substitute of the actual word in context. Also used as a substitute for the word "thing" when trying to think of a word.

Aw what was that thing called again? Remember? The thing, the gallubies! What was it?
