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!

On the other hand, malls "Down Under" nearly always have a grocery store (or two). Greater Sydney's WESTFIELD BURWOOD, a 1999-2000 rebuild of a circa-1966 shopping mall, houses Coles and Woolworths grocery stores. BTW, Woolworths supermarkets in Australia were never associated with America's defunct F.W. Woolworth 5 & 10 chain.


The entrance of the "Woolies" at Greater Melbourne's CHADSTONE ["Chad-stun"] CENTRE. This gargantuan "shopping precinct" houses three grocery stores. In addition to the Woolworths seen here, there are Coles and Aldi operations.
