I haven't been in there since bayhealth took over most of the mall. I'm glad I got my photos before everything was blocked off. Even this video is sad how little is left of the original mall. I'm sure it's much worse now.

Very Wonderful Video!!! I really enjoyed the Fountain!!!! F+L, Corey

Before the mall was there it was just a swamp. My cousin went ice skating over there in the winter (I never could skate).The block between my grandparents' street and Haddonfield Rd was just a lot which, for some reason, had piles of dirt in it. Then they put a Burger King on the Haddonfield Rd side. The Garden State racetrack and the Latin Casino still existed further down Haddonfield Rd. way. I ought to go back, just for nostalgia sake.

great video

That fountain is incredible!

Fun Fact: The Auntie Anne's pretzel place at the 17:50 mark was the first mall location for the company (opened in 1989). Up until that point, they were only in farmer's markets. The dead Bon-Ton is now a Raymour and Flanagan.

Thanks for the tour. I used to go to that mall often when we moved to Valley Forge from Colorado. I didn't know anyone yet, so I found comfort in being around familiar stores. It has changed a lot, but it's nice to see it surviving. Maybe now that Exton Square has sold, Preit can put more money into Plymouth Meeting.

Thank you for another wonderful video! One of my favorite Malls also but my all time favorite is Oxford valley.

That dollar bill of paper will eventually merge with the particles of water. Cool fountain and nice mall tour, thanks!

Put some stores in the empty spaces.

Doomie Grunt went to this mall in April 2021 and uploaded in July 2023.

Not much left in the food court

Now there is one restaurant in the food court

I worked in the Macy's. Loved it.

I still haven't been to a Tilt Studio, yet. I believe Cherryvale Mall in Rockford has one, and i may visit that mall(and check out their Tilt Studio) in the future. Maybe those arcades aren't too different, from their predecessor Tilt? So do you guys like Round 1(and I've been to 2 of them) better? Thanks for the after hours tour, and it's nice the security didn't care you were walking after hours.

This is my childhood mall and live near it. As much as I love it, I think what is keeping it alive is the nearby military base and university of Richmond. The red arches you saw at the beggining have always bee there, underneath it used to be a fountain, there were two more as well, one in front of JC Penny and another near the food court where some of the food stands are. I remember when this place was fairly new, there was a McDonald's in the food court plus the one next door to the mall, I always wondered why they needed two that close to each other.

I was just there at the Apple Store and walked around really nice mall!!

As a free-roam mallbrat of the 80s, that sign physically hurts to read. Before I had a double-digit age my mom would just cut me loose and say that she'd find me later.

A 3 level mall, cool. Cool center ceiling display. Great photos at the end too, and nice clock display. Malls close so early these days most times. Some malls or most stores close by 7 PM during week days and weekends. 5 PM on Sundays I think. Not all malls, but many these days, compared to 9 PM in the old days.

Cool to roam a closed Mall!

Were the hanging mobile statues are was the fountain ⛲️

The Mall leaves a lot to be desired compared to what it once was in its glory days so sad seeing it today

We went to this mall regularly in the 80s, no vacancies, but it was before the AMC wing and the new wing down by Strawbridge and clothier. It was a very busy mall at the time, year a round. No food court at the time but Friendly's was there.

Spent my entire youth there. Used to be a WGAL 15 TV station there. There were these TV monitors in the wings to watch advertisements. Who dosent remember the Jade Tiki Inn?

Might as well just become a truck stop at this point considering that so many trucks take over the sears parking lot at night and rest there!! They say now they wanna demolish half of the complex and build apartments there but idt it’s gonna happen, every year something new always comes up and it doesn’t happen, they put a truck stop there and it’s more convenient for truckers and travelers traveling on either PA Turnpike or Route 1 and it’s easily accessible from both, but it means more traffic and I’ve lived by this mall for 18 years now and i guess im used to hearing the all the turnpike and route 1 traffic nearby, it’ll just cause more truck and tourist traffic in my part of town near the mall lol and it’ll be very busy….

This mall is still alive and well. I recently read they have 10 new shops of some kind coming in. Thriving for sure.

I also love the flowery smell of malls in general when I walk into them, smelling like body fragrance products

Hello, I am kind of a shy guy when it comes to commenting on KZbin not knowing whether I’ll get a response or if anyone really cares but anyway I really enjoy shopping malls and I too have been to the American dream mall but I have never been to the Garden State Plaza yet, but however, I’ve passed it many times because I’m a truck driver and I do a lot of deliveries in Paramus New Jersey. I am from Burlington County New Jersey and a long time ago back when the Burlington center mall was open that used to be the mall that my family would take me to, but unfortunately, that mall no longer exist. It’s like completely gone they turned it into an industrial park so the closest mall I shop at is Moorsetown, Cherry Hill or Deptford Malls. I also had a chance to take a lunch break while I was at work at the Willowbrook mall in Wayne and that is a beautiful mall as well. Thank you for making this video and I appreciate the ones you make.

Cherry Hill Mall is one of my Childhood Malls I used to go with my now Late Dad, my Mom, and my Brother😃😃😃👍👍👍!!! I remembering going to the Woolworth Restaurant to eat with my Family and I so remember going to Kay Bee Toy Store🧸🐻!! And I so agree with the Lady host in this video😃👍💜💯 and I too would LOVE to see Snoopy❤❤ and Hello Kitty❤❤ which I grew up with, but I also LOVE Pusheen the Cat as much as Tuxedo Sam😃😃!!! I collect both Plush Toys and Dolls, so I really enjoy nostalgia!!! ! I am so happy that there is at least Build A Bear,🧸🐻 Mini So .)_ Toy Store, and FYE!!!! And that Bistro looks like a Woolworth Restaurant add on before my time that I saw in another video of "Magical Memories of the Malls"🤗🤗 !! And I am so happy that at least 2 of the⛲ water fountains were saved⛲😃😃💙💙!!! And I so remember the Cherry Hill Mall having🦜 large cages with birds🦜 in them😃😃 and unfortunately I remember the 🤭🤢🤭smell of cigarettes too🤢!! And in my Childhood days in the 1970s to the 1980s, although there were pockets of smoking, there were 🙃no marijuana stands🙃!!! Thank you so much for sharing today's Cherry Hill Mall and I am so happy that at least this Mall of my Childhood is still alive and NOT a dead Mall😃😃!!!!!!

14:03 Who was that? Was that 1 of the Allied Universal guards?

All I can say is when the gallery opened up it was a wonderful experience. I was there 1977 20 feet from the door.

10:07 That store is called Express/ExpressMen.

1:35 Strawbridge & Clothier was the only store built in 1967. The rest of the mall as well as Sears & Roebuck were built a year after.

It suck’s to see what happened to this mall. Lots of childhood memories.

I think the store you were thinking of at 9:55 was Express. I used to visit Neshaminy Mall all the time in the 90's. It's sad to see it go like this.

Acording to an employee I had spoken to at Plymouth Meeting’s FYE around the time the FYE which was a former Sam Goody in this mall closed, this location supposedly shut down due to them having to fire 2 different store managers and then were unable to get new employees

Oh my gosh, my dude! I was there that same day at 2p.m.! I have pictures because it was my first time there!

LIDS at deptford mall has very few customers

AeropoSTALE?! 1998 time warp?!

I'm so sorry about your mall. There's a small mall a mile away from my home that was built in 1965. I have so many memories from my teens in the 80s. A new owner purchased it and wants to renovate it and is being blocked by the city because the city council wants it to completely fail so they can tear it down and build an apartment building. My other childhood mall was in St. Paul, MN and was burnt to the ground during the Floyd riots. Although I had not visted in years, the fact that I can never see it again still makes me cry.

Im guessing no money for water

My grandparents lived over on Third Avenue and I remember when this mall was built. I haven't been there since the 70s or 60s. There used to be a head shop called "East-East-East" where we hippies bought stuff we thought was cool. I'm sure it doesn't look anything like I remember. The stores now probably didn't exist then.

Hallmark card store still going. They were one of the early Mall stores too, from way back in the 1980s and maybe before? I have seen some close shop, but good to see this one still going in this nice mall tour. Enjoy 2025, thanks RRR.

This mall was a staple of part of my childhood. My uncle used to live in Bensalem (he now lives in Trevose) but every time we'd go to his house for Thanksgiving dinner we'd always go here on Black Friday to see a movie at the AMC and do some shopping. Always loved looking at the vintage dioramas in the windows and Neshaminy Indian fountain in the old Strawbridge and Clothier wing of the mall. We saw a movie at the AMC a few weeks ago here for the first time in a while and walked around for a bit and the scarcity of tenants was shocking. I'm stunned this mall hasn't managed to stay afloat given its pretty decent location but local competition from the King of Prussia Mall and Willow Grove certainly haven't helped. Another mall of my childhood (the others being my hometown Coventry Mall and the awesome Schuylkill Mall upstate) biting the dust. :/ *btw, what year is that Boscov's storefront picture from?

The food court was a 3 story Hutzler’s department store in the 1970s until the 1980s remodel. The Diamond Point furniture store that was closed was a large Sears department store. Also my two sons and their friend once got stuck in that elevator on a Saturday afternoon. Their friend thought it was a good idea to pull the doors open while going between floors and the elevator stopped between floors. The fire department had to get them out with a ladder !

"Health Power"... glowing like the rest of the mall once did in better days...
