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!


Anchoring LATHAM CORNERS CENTER was a unit of the Boston Store, a New York State branch of Interstate Stores. The largest retail structure in the Capital Region, it featured the area's first escalator.
