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!
By 1980, two additional anchor stores have been built; Lord & Taylor and Saks Fifth Avenue. The shopping venue now encompasses approximately 1,491,000 leasable square feet. Its vast parking area has room for nearly 10,000 autos.
