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!

Reno's PARK LANE CENTRE, as it was configured in mid-1967. The open-air complex encompassed around 580,000 leasable square feet, with nearly forty stores and services. Free parking was provided for 3,000 autos. Sears, which anchored the north end of the facility, predated the mall by a year-and-a-half. Weinstock's, on the south end, has just opened its doors.
