Our CENTURY III logo montage is composed of trademarks of fifteen charter stores and services.


The original complex was a 1.6 million square foot, tri-level structure with five anchors, 170 stores and 6,000 for-free parking spaces. CENTURY III was developed by a joint venture of Youngstown's Edward J. DeBartolo Corporation and Pittsburgh's U.S. Steel Corporation.

A cut-away view of the mammoth mall, running east to west. The Penney's wing, on the west, was a sub-level lower than "Monkey Ward's," on the east. The bulk of the mall was 2 levels, with a 3rd floor balcony. This was accessed by a labyrinth of ramps, stairs and escalators.
