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!
Kansas City's Blue Ridge Center 


Greater Kansas City, Missouri's second mall-type shopping venue spanned approximately 525,000 leasable square feet and contained thirty-two tenants. This rendering -from 1958- includes a second anchor department store that was added to the mall 4 years later.
