  Anchor - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The kind of anchor you probably envision is a temporary anchor, the kind which might be carried aboard a ship or a boat.
The anchor needs to hold the vessel in all weathers, including the most severe storm, but only occasionally, or never, needs to be lifted, only for example if the vessel is to be towed into port for maintenance.
A hand on the anchor line may telegraph a series of jerks and jolts, indicating the anchor is dragging, or a smooth tension indicative of digging in.

 AGG > Publication > The Emerging Definition of the Anchor Store
In tandem with the changing definition of the anchor is the increased use of "variety and specialty store," which is regularly agreed to be in the 10,000- to 20,000-square-foot range.
Variety and specialty store has the same general impact as the anchor store, i.e., the square footage, when determining the charge denominator, is deducted from the gross leasable area of the project.
If the landlord has dual definitions of "anchor" stores and "variety and specialty" stores (and particularly in instances when there could be a number of 15,000-plus square-foot tenants) some landlords may be willing to cap the number of tenants which will be deemed to be "variety or specialty" stores.

 Going Dark Aggressively
Where anchor tenants are involved, however, landlords are likely to be as concerned about the economic impact of the tenant’s leaving the premises as they are about the loss of percentage rent.
Some anchor tenants do not pay fixed rent at all, and some that have percentage rent clauses are not generating rent beyond the stipulated minimum - in fact this often is a primary reason that the tenant wants to relocate.
The trust, landlord for the grocery store, did not join in the suit as a plaintiff, and the developer sued the trust for failure to compel the tenant to operate continuously.

The anchor store is necessary to draw customers to the mall, and thereby draw shops and stores that will lease space in the in-line portion of the mall.

So Scott couldn't afford a $30 anchor, yet he could buy a $45.00 fishing pole (when he had a perfectly good one at Ron and Sharon's house, although neither one were for salt water).
Scott could have purchased this anchor (SKU #439927 - 4 pound) for $15.99 at this store that was on the way from Modesto to Berkeley and was open on the 24th at the time he would have been driving by.
Except that he didn't need to anchor his boat, he needed to sink his wife and child, for which an ANCHOR was not what he needed.

 The Patriot Ledger at SouthofBoston.com
Shopping mall owners are rethinking the definition of anchor stores amid consolidation in department store chains and competition from upscale lifestyle centers.
Traditional department stores are still important anchors for regional malls, which draw the bulk of their customers from a 20-mile radius.
With limited new properties to pick from, chains are building the bulk of their new stores in open air lifestyle centers, such as Derby Street Shoppes in Hingham, or so-called ‘‘power centers'' such as Weymouth's Riverway Plaza that are anchored by big-box stores.
