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!

Clark's Crabapple Restaurant, a circa-1946 charter tenant. This snapshot was taken in 1969.

Another 1969 snapshot. Here we see two of the businesses that fronted on Bellevue Way...on the east side of the shopping center.
