I love going to the mall, and stopping in some of my favorite stores all in one place. And I guess that I have passed this on to my son. We make our regular rounds through Eastland Mall searching for Funko Pops, shoes, and cool t-shirts. Let me tell you, if BoxLunch and Hot Topic ever close, it will be the end of times for me!

 Farewell PacSun

In recent months, Eastland Mall has said goodbye to H & M, Tilly's, and PacSun. Trendy clothing is the common denominator with all three of these stores. Honestly, it seems like teens and young adults prefer to thrift, and that is probably hurting retail stores.

Say Hello and Goodbye to #DeadMalls

If The Steamtown Mall sounds familiar but you've never been to Scranton, PA, you probably saw it featured in the television series The Office. There was a convention held at the mall for fans of The Office when it was still on NBC. Even with that popularity, stores still closed one by one.

Then and Now - See Inside Evansville, Indiana's Eastland Mall

Eastland Mall opened in 1981, and it has changed a lot through the years. JC. Penny still anchors the mall on one end, and what was Lazarus Department Store is now Macy's.

Vintage Disney: Step Back in Time Inside Retro Disney Store

Most of the retail Disney stores have closed. Luckily we have these photos from the Louisville, KY store that was in Oxmor Mall.

Then & Now - Evansville's Washington Square Mall Through the Years

Evansville is home to a lot of unique buildings including the first enclosed retail shopping center in Indiana. Yes, our very own Washington Square Mall was the place to be when it opened in 1963. If you walk through the mall today, you would never guess how alive the shops were, even through the 1980s. Enjoy this walk down memory lane I've put together, and maybe someday there will be new life inside 5011 Washington Ave.
