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!
By the late '80s, the Queen City reigned over four directionally-designated shopping centers. SOUTHPARK had been the first. Next came EASTLAND (in 1975), and NORTHPARK and WESTPARK (in 1977).
