Welcome to the largest mall and retail history site on the internet. The MALL HALL OF FAME is a vintage shopping mall scrapbook. Its focus is on shopping complexes built -in the USA- between 1946 and 1979. Don't forget to visit our four Shopping Mall Memory Lanes, which transport you through time to a mall in 1956, 1963, 1970 and 1977!
Omaha's The Crossroads 


The first stores in America's sixth fully-enclosed shopping mall opened in September 1960. THE CROSSROADS was the first of Omaha's "Roads" malls. SOUTHROADS opened in 1966, with WESTROADS coming into the fold in 1967-1968. Btw, no EASTROADS or NORTHROADS malls would ever be developed.
