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!

By the dawn of the 21st century, ANTIOCH CENTER had been bested by other retail venues in its trade area...especially the METRO NORTH MALL. A redevelopment was announced in late 2004. This project was delayed several times and was eventually abandoned. A second initiative got underway in 2010, with demolition of the virtually vacant mall beginning in late 2011.
