The north anchor store proposed in the early 1960s was not completed until 1969. A Mid-Century Modern entrance, depicted here, was added to the mall at the same time. The adjacent anchor store was built as a Topps discount mart. After this closed, the space was taken by Toys "R" Us. They would operate at GBM for over 43 years.
