When speaking of the mall--that is, The Mall--what do you call the inside of it?

If the whole thing—the whole shopping center, with all the stores and the pushcarts and benches and the food court and parking garages and everything—is “the mall,” what term do you use for the actual indoor hallway where the store entrances are?

Let’s say I’m speaking of a mall with a floor plan like this. You can see the store map by clicking “Center Directory” down on the left and downloading a PDF. There are several 45-degree angles joining legs of the mall.

So let’s say you are walking through one of those sections and you come to one of those angles in the < blank >. What word goes in the blank? Is it an angle in the hall, the corridor, the mall itself, or what? For example, “When she passed the angle (bend? it’s not actually a corner) in the < blank >, she saw that he was waiting on the bench outside the jewelry store.”
