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 Bon Ton was in operation at BERKSHIRE MALL for over 27 years. The store was liquidated, along with the entire Bon Ton Stores conglomerate, in mid-2018.

Our final BERSKSHIRE layout depicts the mall as it stood in 2019. The demise of the Bon Ton store was followed by the shuttering of another anchor. The 49-year-old Sears went dark in early 2019. With these defections, the complex still encompasses its original 890,000 leasable square feet, with a total of ninety-two stores and services.
