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!

The mid-1980s reinvention of SEVERANCE TOWN CENTER was not an astounding success. By the mid-1990s, both of its anchor stores had been abandoned. The bulk of the mall was bulldozed in the late 1990s and replaced by the open-air power plaza seen here.

Stores in the new & improved SEVERANCE TOWN CENTER opened between 1998 and 2000. The complex was anchored by Home Depot, Wal-Mart and the Regal Severance Town Center Stadium 14.
