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. This site includes historical sections about regional department stores, discount stores, 5 & 10 stores and supermarkets. 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!
Here, we see the east-facing facade of the complex. Foot Locker closed their EASTGATE TOWN CENTER store soon after this photo was taken.

Knoxville-based Goody's Family Clothing built a new store on the northwest corner of the TOWN CENTER in the year 2000. The store, which occupied the ground level of the addition, was shuttered -along with the entire chain- in early 2009. The space was divided between Office Depot and Citi Trends stores.
