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!
Cleveland's Randall Park Mall


A 1976 aerial view shows the newly-completed North Coast megamall. Built by Youngstown's Edward J. Debartolo, it encompassed an astounding (for the time) 2.2 million leasable square feet and would eventually house 175 stores and services. The bi-level parking area accommodated 9,000 autos at one time.
