The Red Lobster down the street from me is on the chopping block for closure. It sits on an outparcel of a dead mall where homeless people stay in the parking lot.

I'm ca n remember each each one of the concourses and every store back when WS was thriving.Everything from Ponderosa to that really cool McDonald's in rhe old Sears wing that was divided into like 4 different time eras .Just so many memories at this mall

Excellent video! I really enjoyed watching. Your video skills, and narration was flawless! Keep up the good work!

You wouldn’t get copyrighted for a long time since there still owned but not by cec they are still owned by the original creator and he is very public about the characters and songs being everyone’s and not one singular person

I live near there

Had lunch at the MCL cafe with my grandma

My little brother and I hung out at this mall

I used to go when it was open air. Shopped at Jackies Circle, Albert K, Woolworth. Vwhen I was 13 /14 years old I'd go to JCPs candy counter and get 25 cents worth of m&m's or the red died pistachios, The candy lady would scoop them into a white paper bag. I'd then go sit by the water mill and people watch. Went to the Mill Run theater now and then too.

Shopping has moved down the street closer to Goshen.

Used to live in Mt. Auburn. Never went to this mall (my ex worked in Decatur). All of the businesses left Decatur (CAT being one of the biggest) and it was not likely that the location helped the cash strapped town. No people. No money. High crime. No mall.

I shouldn't watch this! My family moved from Michigan to Florida in the early Nineties and this ex- Corbin Holiday Inn was always an I-75 stopover for us. I think my last stay here was in 1993.

I moved from Decatur about a year ago. I grew up in that area and have went to that mall hundreds of times throughout the last 2 and a half decades, shocked it isnt completely abandoned yet.

I really enjoyed this video. Thanks for posting.

I remember one year where people can take your season pass for surf Cincinnati using to get in the Beach water park I do remember that.

Let me correct you on something about the Beach waterpark . The last time the Beach water park was open in 2019 that was the last time I got my season pass for the Beach water park in 2019 when it was 2020 that when the Beach waterpark closed down for good never open in 2020.

You don’t explore cool places like John Cassity. He explored Eastland Mall the other day and I bet you won’t go 😂window shopper

WHOA EPIC FIRE VIDEO BRO

Maybe it’ll become a blue roof Burger King

Milk discount prohibition is a government thing

The store manager here gave me one of their old blue light special lights when they were closing. Still works too!

Thinking about coming here in the fall! Hope they keep it some parts of 2025 especially the golf mill professional building with the Otis touch sensitive buttons!

Único lugar onde gosto de ver grafites … ou pixação… único lugar onde eles se combinam

I haven't been in Washington Sq since the early/mid 2000s.

Grew up w both parks. My dad worked for Nutone and they rented out the entire park (Americana). Went to Fantasy Farm too. I remember all the rides. I don't need a map. Hated the sky ride. Several people died in that lake. People swam in the lake b4 they built a pool. Great memories. Idk if my grandkids would like either bc they have Kings Island. I remember Coney Island too b4 Kings Island opened. I was 6 maybe? Miss the old parks and their reasonable prices!!

Lots of memories from this mall as a kid. Pathmark was like the only grocery store in my area so we’d go there on the weekends shopping and always went to Aegean pizza. The best pizza which is now part of Carlo’s pizza in Holbrook. This mall was awesome in the 80s. It even had an arcade named Subway by the dentist. I visited Record Stop every weekend to get music. I remember McCrory, Rickel was where toys r us was and no it did not have an in the mall entrance. AC MOORE did though. Before AC Moore it was the Gap. Sears portrait studios was near AC Moore wing. Also Service Merchandise was in the corner. Blockbuster video was by pathmark. Santa and the Easter Bunny was there every year. Had many breakfasts at The Pancake Cottage. The mall went downhill in the 90’s I’d say and never recovered. Once Pathmark closed it was pretty much done except for AC moore and aegeans. And pathmark was pretty sketchy towards the end. Then the pandemic did in the rest of the stores. People lined up the day aegeans closed to get pizzas, including myself. They had to start sending people away. They ran out of food. People drove from Queens NY for their last day to get food. It was sad. Glad they’re doing something with this mall and I’ll always keep my memories of SunVet mall.

The Orchards only has one store left and they still didn’t think about closing the mall

$4.27 for a chair..... that same chair is now $30.

Your hair, tho! 😂 It's too distracting.

Bet that was a huge waste of time!

Just a heads up if you go in like a month or 2 fountain might be back up they are working on it also a new goodwill and Evansville goodwill head offices 😊

I miss FYE. I bought CD's there and when it was having it's going out of business sale I bought vinyl copies of 'A Love Supreme' by John Coltrane and The Velvet Undergrounds' third album cheap. Still have them.

Absolutely beautiful video. You caught the aging of the old buildings just perfectly! ❤

awesome boombox, and rare, I have one myself, sounds amazing, cassette deck on mine works but no sound at all. gonna have to look into that.

I moved to muncie 3 yrs ago. I fell in love with this house , love at first sight😊. I was to afraid to explore it to see the inside. So thank you for the video. I now have a beautiful idea how it looked when first built.

That Mall was always busy in the 80's and 90's, spent a lot of time there growing up. Jolly Jester, Disc Jockey, Sbarro's, and of course, all the movies. I know a big portion of it just got sold, not sure what the plans with the new owners are going to be.

It's called the ville not villa.

You do sound like Mario

I went to the new towne Mall in new Philadelphia ohio back in 2018, And I love it there ,I walked around the mall and listening to Neffex Fight Back

Luxottica Retail has terminated aggrement with Sears and closed ALL Remaining Sears Optical locations by February 1, 2020

I hope that Roy Rogers expands throughout the rest of the state of Ohio. You said those restaurants are coming to the Cincinnati and Dayton areas. They have to come to Columbus, Cleveland, Toldeo, Akron-Canton, and Youngstown areas. I live outside of Cleveland, I'll take Roy Rogers over McDonald's, Burger King, Wendys, KFC, and Arby's anytime.

Nice video. My family went to Coney Island a couple of times when I was a child and remember the big pool with the big steel slide well. We would stay at Carousel Inn when in Cinci, we lived in Columbus. Appreciate the update on that property.

That’s was amazing

0:06 Oh yeah. That's why our grandparents were skinnier than us.

I used to go to the mall as a kid with my mother and go eat in the restaurant at Hudson's upstairs. And always got some warm nuts and some chocolate mint candies at the candy counter!
