While not as vibrant as it once was I still love the place.

I was stationed at the air base from March 1977 to October 1979, so I was there when Columbia Mall opened. My wife and I got over there once or twice, as we lived on 26th Avenue S., so we weren't too far from it.

[trafficligh]

Forgot to mention that I wouldn't mind seeing posted on You Tube the commercial where it said, "Christmas at Columbia Mall."

[pensacola07]

@trafficligh I was stationed at GFAFB from December 1978 to January 1981. 321st FMMS

[sierra2424]

[zodiaczombie]

This was pure goodness from the past. Now if only some zombies were to be seen stumbling about the mall.

[kilrkane]

oh they're there except their stumbling around in the bar.

[DustyTowne]

Yep, when you lived in Manitoba and you wanted to go to 'the states', the first stop was Columbia Mall in North Dakota! If you were really adventurous, you'd go to the mall in Fargo. In the early 90's, there was this cool clothing store for women, but the dressing rooms had no doors! I found that so weird.

[catpaws55423]

Do you mean the West Acres mall in Fargo? I've only been to that mall 2 or 3 times in my life.

[nshields]

The good ol' days of running around on the big ugly artsy thing out side of Daytons. Good times Good times.

[catpaws55423]

Hi, nshields. I grew up in Grand Forks. I too, remember that big ugly artsy thing outside of Daytons. I also seem to remember an ugly gray horsesoe type artsy thing outside of JCPenney. Well, anyway, I miss those times. People seemed to care about each other more back then.

[catpaws55423]

I meant horseshoe. I didn't realize I forgot the h until after I posted.

[annihilus2]

me too, graduated in 82 from red river, (k mart high) now my zip is 95476!!!!! thank god!!!!!

[andreak1892]

firstly, does anyone else find those two kids playing in the dressing room sorta weird? secondly, when the "ef" did the mall have a meat case?

[catpaws55423]

I think the meat case was from the Hickory Farms shop on the way to Target.

Meet me at the mall!
