Glimcher realty also owned Eastland Mall in Charlotte, NC unfortunately torn down in 2013, a very interesting mall used to have an ice skating rink

Enjoyed this video but was so crazy to see the posters for The WB. I worked for the network from 2001-2006 as a video editor in the promotions department. I worked on Reba, Gilmore Girls and many others during that time. The network went away in September 2006 after merging with UPN to become The CW. Really neat to see those were still up in there when you filmed it which was well after the network was gone.

love your vids sal ❤

My mom use to take me and my siblings to this mall in the 90s. My dad would take us to the arcade. I remember it having a pet store with animals in it. There was a roller skate ring somewhere near the mall that’s not around anymore. Good times man

Man growing up and discovered they removed the arcade, indoor gym(basketball court), monster zone? That mail was so lifeless.

This place looks SO FUCKING AWESOME. It screams and reminds me of The 90’s Batman: The Animated Series.

It never did too well except maybe in the beginning. It was just too small to compete with the suburban malls it was trying to lure people away from to come downtown. I went there a few times but there just wasn't much there.

Missed ya sal

Seeing escalators in the mall will always be a sight for me. You know how they work but I find it so interesting that someone decided to invent and design such a thing. The automatic stair.

I remember seeing the ducks in this mall as a child

I am a Bicentennial turning 50 in 2 years and many malls opened and thrived in our childhood and teen years. My mall was Jamestown in St. Louis. This mall is gorgeous and it's a darn shame what's happening. Sal, you rock this series.

I worked at H&S Pogues in the 70s.

When I was a kid I think this tower lit up around Christmas time in the 80s and played Axel F it was amazing!

Wow. What a moldy mess. Now everyone will hassle Ace at his office. 😅 Good to see you again. Thanks

Oh that arcade bring back memories of the malls I went to. I love that classic hydro thunder cabinet.

I used to work at that big insurance company next door. During the company's 10k steps a day campaign, tons of employees (myself included) would use our lunch breaks to log our steps. I watched that mall go from having Time Out on the Court to that ridiculous underwater theme (I worked at the insurance co at that time) in 2006-7 ish. Maybe 2008. It was definitely around the recession. Anyway, I just drove past there on June 19th 2024 because the kids wanted to go in one last time, but all entrances are boarded up now.

Sal, my friend, PLEASE take ur health seriously... Carry your face-covering or a decent respirator on you at all times when entering these buildings... Carry a backpack or something with things to help keep you healthy, cuz if you get too sick [or, Gawd forbid, DIE] from an airborne ailment, who's gonna post vids of these places? Sure there's other ppl posting dead mall stuff, but we're all here to see you cuz we dig ur style of content, and w/o Sal, they're jus not the same. Take care of yourself, Sal, cuz we care. 😷 😬 😉👍

Turn it into a prison so we can make more money off prisoners

Wanna come back to our dumb little city sometime? Boulevard Mall just went dead and the Galleria probably won’t be far behind.

First “Supermall” in 1989? Total BS. I live in Houston and we have The Galleria which was built in 1970 with double the square footage of said “First Supermall”.

This is the only dead mall in the Buffalo metro area still open to the public.

Your ability to provide so much information on each show and tell the story so smoothly flawlessly!!! Thanks !

And eventually north lake mall in charolette Nc it’s not dead but going down hill after some crime

Also see if you can check out golden east crossing mall in rocky mount Nc it’s not completely dead but it’s getting there

You need to if you haven’t already checked out signal hill mall in Statesville Nc the mall is closed but you need to get over there before it’s all torn down but it’s not fully torn down they are only tearing down the interior not exterior

When I was a kid the wall with the white wood paneling was where the Eye Masters was located. My mom got glasses from there when I was a kid.

I didn't catch the live, but pretty sure I could still smell it from NY.

the Amazing Place you can tell was an EB Games, still sporting the ole Purple and Green trim.

I was in the Surf Cincinnati commercial that you so awesomely featured in this video. I was 14 back then. What a blast from the past! 😮🎉

Update on Sunrise Mall 7:13 I was on the top and bottom deck of the Macy's store recently, and they had red rope flimsy covering the entrance to the mall and know this no one is allowed inside the mall just the retail stores that somehow still exist here T.O.W 3:51 PM EST

Does anyone remember Farrell's Ice Cream parlour/restaurant when the mall first opened in '73? Former Massapequan here, the mall he walked through did not look anything as I remember it back in the '70's/'80's. Yes, Macy's was there but what about Spenser's with the black light posters, the gaming room with the pacman, etc machines across from Sbarro's pizza and the Health spa/gym next door. Also, the cinemas? Times do change... but not always for the better! Well, Jolly Roger's is gone, as is my childhood! Go Chiefs!!!

Out parcel? Dude, your Columbia is showing!!

Dude…a pay phone with what looks like an actual phone book @5:56 really retro!

Amazing how ugly Greenspoint is vs. this one that was left alone like I remember it.

Should make a visit to Bel Air Mall in Mobile. Al. Also what is left of SpringDale Mall also in Mobile. They are about 1/2 dead malls that you would love.

I just imagine the theme song from the original Amityville Horror playing

Mall looks like it was probably built in the 1970s.

It looks like that might’ve been outside mall that was enclosed at some point.
