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!
The mallway entrance of the center's south anchor store. It closed for good in February 2008, soon after these pictures were taken.
The interior of the Mall Level floor of the CANTON CENTRE Macy's. The store had a long and varied rebranding history during its 40 years in business. It started out as an Akron-based O'Neil's and morphed into a Cleveland-based May Company, Pittsburgh-based Kaufmann's and, finally, the Macy's seen here.
