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!
During 1977 and 1978, NORTH EAST MALL was expanded from 750,000 to 1.3 million square feet. Sears, Montgomery Ward and the United Artists Northeast 6 multiplex joined the retail roster, which had grown to 106 stores and services.
