No mall is truly abandoned as long as it is still being maintained, let alone when electricity, light fixtures, escalators, elevators and background music still fully functional.
@MIKON8ERISBACK When a City, or building is abandoned or evacuated, they don't unroute the power, especially in the route of an emergency, like one of the cities in the province I live in was evacuated and abandoned due to a Solanum outbreak.
I'd like to strip those brass handrails and scrap them out. Where is this place? There must be $5000 worth in that place. That will buy lots of crack. I won't have to use my EBT card.
Kahn development bought this mall and hopes to bring new life to it but nothing yet...I would like to see JC Penney or Macy's set up shop in this mall
I love these old shopping malls of the 60's and 70's, nice designed interior, windows shine the insides with unique designs. Go to the Galleria Mall in down town Houston, Tx, as you will be fascinated with the interior design!
Malls of the 60's-70's were the best, This one must be 70's because of all the mirrors. It was the 80's that malls started getting bland "facelifts" in witch they were turned into the stark white shopping machines of today, This trend went throught the 90's and now lifestyle centers are taking the place of indoor malls all togather
@gravijiga Exactly right malls were initially envisioned as neo-town centers for the suburbs. They turned into empty sterile indoor strip malls due to greed. I used to enjoy going to malls in the late 70's ealry 80's they had fountains, lots of plant life, arcades, restaurants, etc. They used to feel alive.
You know, it seems that the malls back in the late 70's and early 80's had much more charm to them than malls designed and built within the last 20 years. The mall in this video is just plain beautiful! I haven't been in one like this for so long, but in Canada most of the malls here are newer, which is sad, because I prefer the older ones. By the way, watch the movie Scanners to see footage of a very cool looking mall. It's rather gaudy as everything is bright red, but very, very cool.
Ok. Now all four malls in Columbia are struggling. Columbiana Mall's management is bankrupt, Dutch Square is too small to survive, Richland Mall is already dead, and Columbia Place Mall has gone way downhill. If GPP decides to close Columbiana even though it is thriving, then it is going to disrupt Columbia's retail environment in a way I can't describe. I don't even though what would happen.
Sorry to hear that. I know a Circuit City store closed in a town in Ohio I used to go to, and a mall in a few towns over has been dead for 10 years. Plus, a grocery store I worked at is also gone, though there was a store in the same chain that was still open in the town I live in.
@PinkDotManda You see some dead malls anywhere, but don't let the word "dead" trick you. Because dead also means closed forever or it's abandoned. And no, Its no zombies anywhere, it's not real.
thats richlan fashion mall it is always dead there. thats why it was easy for me and my friends to ride our bikes inside of the mall without hitting nobody
Back in the 1980's it was ultra-upscale, sometimes called the Lenox Square of Columbia. Now it is dead because of Columbiana Mall. Columiana is too upscale for the city, and is the only enclosed mall in Columbia that is not a dead or dying mall.
