Bought my first smartphone from that Radioshack in 2012 🥲

Thanks for posting this. One of my early memories is of a family trip in a Holidome.

Mercury what happened to you?

So saf

When was this video taken ?

Bunch of lost souls sucked in this financial hell.

You should have seen this mall in the mid 80's when it was always crowded with decent stores. Sad what it has become.

I live like 10 minutes away from there and the only stuff that still occupied are AMC Theatres and Crunch Fitness. They really could add some new stores to make it feel more alive again.

Great documentation. Been here several times in the last few years. A vintage gem!

Bigger mall than Boulevard and Eastern Hills and actually has a food court (but no water fountains). Don't know what the guy who opened the skate park was thinking opening there but good to see some kids using it and also kids in the arcade. Looks to be about 20% occupancy at this juncture. Also, great to see there's no stinky soy candle store stinking up the entire mall, like at Eastern Hills- that odor still lingers to this day, even though that mall has been closed for months. Overall, this mall still appears to be in good physical condition and without the tell-tale roof damage, early warning water damage marks on the interior's ceiling. Parking lot also doesn't have the characteristic, mall in decline, parking lot pot holes, that are pervasive at Eastern Hills and Boulevard malls.Thanks for posting this. Good job.

How does this mall have a open value city furniture? I’ve never been to this mall even though I’ve been to the abandoned Fredrick Towne mall

Wow great find! These old brown tile malls are rare. Thanks for sharing!

While the mall in Gaithersburg has died this one is still doing good. I wonder what the factors are for that.

That mall is pretty much dead ever since the pandemic began, by the way at 14:38 Dave and Busters is still open and still active. I go there pretty much with my program class and play some games and have something to eat there!

It's not dead yet, the JC Penny is becoming a lumber yard! 😂

I normally don’t search out this type of music, so good to hear something different. Some of the music was a bit too frantic synth kidz bop style on crack with the keyboardist on 10x crack, but always good to mix it up. 🎉🎉🎉

I wonder how bj’s brew house is doing in these times? I haven’t seen articles about the brand with so many other restaurants struggling.

great video never seen this mall before its a cool looking mall

Very Great Video!!!!! I Love the Fountain!!!! F+L, Corey

On the verge of being foreclosed the sister mall Palisades Center just taken over by the banks.

Nice feeling, thanks - Cleveland Ohio

It’s almost like going back in time to the 80s, but it’s missing something to give the feeling of going back in time to being in a mall in the 80s. I had to think a while to figure out what it’s missing, but I think I’ve figured it out. Neon storefront lights, lush plants including hanging plants, and people actually dressing up to go to a mall. In the 80s people actually put on their fashionable clothes to go to a mall. Today people just put on whatever is comfortable and frump it when going to a mall. And in the 80s malls with round columns would actually have circular neon lights around the columns. In this mall the architecture is 80s-ish, but the lack of plants and lack of neon makes gives it a sterile feel. In contrast malls in the 80s had a warm energy and fertility about them. They gave off energy instead of sucking it out of you.

Kyle, have you ever considered narrating your mall videos? For instance, explaining the history of a mall, change in ownership, etc. The reason I’m saying this is because not everyone is going to enjoy whatever music you choose. Narrating the video balances things out.

So cute!

Come on people! Let’s get Kyle to 1000 subs!! Very close! 🎉🎉🎉

BKs newly built box locations with some of the old retro colors, style and logo is acceptable. They’re embracing their 70s vibe versus McDonald’s leaving their history and style behind…. The taste and smell of BK food is also better than McDump.

you’re still allowed to go inside?

Honestly Malls either thrive or dive! It's All DEMOGRAPHICS!!

Fantastic fountain!

amazes me that morons would invest in all of these failing businesses inside of an absolutely failing mall. their failing business concepts boggle my mind more. "Our business sucks, lets sign up for extreme rent pricing in a mall that sees sub-100 people a day who are walking the tiles so they don't die immediately..."the kingston collection tenant meathads, 2024."

On Wilmorite website looks like the U of R is taking more of the mall space in the future.

Wonderful Video!!!! I love the Fountains!!!! F+L, Corey

Dicks is moving to a smaller store nearby former Christmas Tree Shops.

Whoa… waves and waves of nostalgia. Thanks for uploading

U F O are coming secrets

Complaint the floor look dirty windows yuke yuke clean,come on,really

You should have opened the video with the Wedding Singer version of Holiday that George sang! 😂😂😂

where is this at??

When was this actually filmed because I went today and didn’t see kids footlocker or zumiez

Of all the places where I’d expect to see a thriving mall, in the era of dead and dying malls, Buffalo isn’t one of them. Glad to see it though. I think people who make dead mall videos need to occasionally do a video on a thriving mall as a point of reference. Thank you.

This used to be such a busy mall. It's so sad this happened to it.

Everything about this video is terrible. Starting with the outdated inappropriate text font that washed out against the background (Should have used a dark colored and less antiquated stylized font) at the very beginning of the video. This was followed immediately by the sudden horrible music selection. (Poor song choice but should have faded into it either way) Continuing with poor cinematography that bounces, pauses unnecessarily, and lurches. Get a gimbal or turn on the "steady" feature of the camera. The text at the beginning gave a little snippet of the history but then nothing more throughout the video. The randomly inserted still images should have been placed when you were in front of that area of the mall, not just sporadically. Further if you're going to insert still images, you have done it throughout the video not just randomly in one portion. This was the 1st time watching one of your videos, so it's my hope that your video quality improves!

2:40 I been to that Five Below twice as well! I loved looking around the store including buying some things there!

1:50 I been to that Urban Air Trampoline Park location twice and both times were really fun! First time I went was the end of August 2022 and the second time I went was beginning of April 2024! I enjoyed the trampolines, zip line, the ropes course, the rock wall, bumper cars all of it!

Wow I'm old. I remember the old Blue Hen mall. The Dover mall was the new school mall. Time flies....

Wonderful Video!!!! I Really Love the Fountains!!!! F+L, Corey

I don’t see the mall getting redeveloped, been and a stand still, I believe part of the inside have been reopen.
