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 first of several mall expansions was done in 1980 and '81. A North Wing (in medium gray) was built, that was anchored by Marshalls. This new LIBERTY TREE MALL store was a consolidation of two older locations in Peabody and Beverly; the latter having been the chain's very first store.


The International Food Pavilion, a 16-bay culinary complex, was added to the mall during the 1980-'81 expansion.
