Eh, I’m a geek. I looked it up. 
If he was photographing in 1989, Eastland, Westland, and Northland would have all been open. I think Southland would have been open, but I can’t find anything that says if it was enclosed or not; it has surprisingly little info online about it.
The City Center mall would have opened that fall, all brand new and sparkling.
I can’t find dates for when the Shoppes on Lane Ave opened, but I think it would have been open as an enclosed mall at that time. (It was re-developed as an outdoor mall; although if you visit the Chinese Restaurant in the back, you’ll see a small portion of the original mall interior.)
Northland was built in 1964 and enclosed in 1979. It was torn down in 2004, but I am fairly sure that the Northland Performing Arts Center is part of the original mall.
Eastland was built in 1968. It’s still open!
Westland Mall was built in 1969, but not enclosed until 1982. It was closed down in 2012, but it hasn’t been torn down (yet).
Civic Center Mall opened in 1989, and closed and was torn down in 2009. It’s mostly a park now, although they are in-filling several mixed retail / office / apartment buildings along the outside of it. The parking structures from the mall are still in use.
Tuttle Crossing opened in 1997. It is still open.
Easton Town Center Mall opened in 1999. It is still open, and is doing quite well. It’s about 2 miles from the Northland Mall location.
Polaris Mall opened in 2000. It is also still open and doing quite well.
