I am sure my parents and I went to this mall as a child. One of these days, I got to chat up my dad and ask about it.
ReplyDeleteI'll bet you have been there. Looks like an impressive mall.
ReplyDeleteThis May Co. had a restaurant. Stay on this lower floor, head 70 degrees or so to the left of where the camera was pointed, and you would walk right in it. The top of this Escalator was close to the entrance that opened out into the rest of the mall. The south wing which includes Sears was built a few years later. There was nothing but woods to the south of the mall and Rt. 84. Newberry’s, Penny’s, and the May Co. were the anchor stores.
