@AmericanNinja85 Perhaps when American workers deliver the productivity and quality that their foreign counterparts do (and at a reasonable cost), then American companies might reconsider employing them. Quit blaming the employers for not handing out enough goodies.

I agree we have way to much empty Retail Space and we defiantly need our Manufactoring jbs back the jobs that actually pay a living wage when you start bringing those jobs back the retail will srping back because people will be spending money and the Ecomony will come back !

Toledo is dead...

They used to have these token machines in there that we used to win really neat prizes out of. Once there was a man in there with his monkey wearing a strap on hat and outfit. He would do a flip and and lift his hat when people handed him some money.

This is really depressing stuff. These suburbsan sprawls are ugly to begin with and now nobody even goes there anymore. What a bunch of ugly, unispiring buildings surrounded by concrete acreage that somewhat resemble the Great Plains.

The new owner seems to be recently pouring some cash into Woodville Mall. Hope it pays off for him.

really sad to see.... i left in the early 80s, and even then Toledo was in a hardcore decline. i wonder if it would be possible to leverage the glass expertise (from Libbey Glass) and create a solar hub. We already have First Solar. Geographically, Toledo sits at the intersection of I75 and I80, on Lake Erie, dirt cheap, why can't the place reinvent itself and diversify from the auto industry? BTW, the guy who made this video is totally correct - you can't base an economy on dollar stores.
i agree...our manufacturing jobs need to be brought back to THIS country...

This is what Walmart does people and 90% of everything sold at Walmart is made overseas. I just schooled some little Republican puppet for the rich who said America can't afford to produce anything ? I told that little idiot in the 1950's almost everything sold in the U.S. was made here and the economy was the best it every was. it's called simply economic math if more people have jobs more people can afford to spend more and that helps the businesses and in return they can hire more people.!
