Are these sentences natural? July 19

Hi,

Are the following sentences natural to a native ear?

1. I went the wrong way (I wanted to say that I got lost in a mall).

2. Oh that is just downtown. The rest of city sprawl is over there. (this is what I said when I was standing in the balcony of my house)

3. If god forbid something happens to him, the whole company would be in shambles.



Thanks,

MG.
