Thankfully I got to visit this mall before the Costco shut down. It was a lot nicer place to visit before that happened because the food court was always full of people eating Costco pizza and hot dogs and it felt less creepy.

[@Yoshis_Studio]

Man....I grew up at Christown mall...back when the North entrance had the 2 stair cases that had all the military recruiting offices on the 2nd floor. Ferral's (sp?) Ice cream, Montgomery Wards, The Broadway, Sears, KayBee toys (I worked at the Christown location in the 90s), miracle mile, the food court that had the escalator to the movie theater (saw return of the jedi there).....the 80s and early 90s were that malls heyday for sure.

[@unfazedreview3000]

That’s awesome you saw a Return of the Jedi there and that you worked at KB toys!!! Definitely seems like the golden era there for sure at that point in time.

[@TheAshleyStarflower]

While I do agree that Christown's prime is in the past, I think the mall is really starting to make a comeback with its latest additions such as Burlington and Five Below! I much prefer that than what happened with Metro Center-- just completely dying and being deemed a lost cause. I absolutely love malls, they are a great place to shoot the shit (especially in AZ of all places where you need good AC 😭) and I'd honestly hate for malls to become extinct Also, I'm sure you've already found out but the Bath and Body Works didn't leave, it just moved outside near the Target!

[@iamperfectlight1978]

I grew up at this mall, soooo many memories! My dad was a bus driver so I could ride for free from 31st av and bethany to Christown. I remember as far back as Farrell's. The Sand Sculptures. I saw The Never Ending Story in the upstairs theater. I remember that place that sold huge TVs by montgomery wards, I think across from woolworth, anyway they were playing the beginning of top gun over and over to showcase the tv'd quality. With the jets taking off "hiiighway to the danger zone.." Always loved the atriums and plants! JCPenney was my first job there when I turned 16. Good memories

[@918scott4]

Yes! Farrell's ice cream was right there by Walmart's entrance. I had a love/hate relationship with that place.

My future brother in-law and sister in-law and my future wife, all worked together at the United Artists Theater 6, my best friend and I moved from California to Arizona in 1985, transferring from a U.A. Theater in Northern California. I miss that old Theater and time of my life.

Definitely remember the sand sculptures. And the old movie theater upstairs. The Miracle Mile; the Walgreens inside the mall. I was still shopping at the Christown Costco during the pandemic in 2020 before they moved out. Spent a lot of time here, at MetroCenter and Westridge in the early 90s. Maryvale Mall was already a dump back then.

[@ThomasSoles]

Lived near this mall in the 80s. It was beautiful. Holidays had elaborate displays. There were sand sculptures set up like art exhibits and more. It was a lot of fun and so close to home. Metrocenter was more elaborate and amazing but this was in my backyard and I loved it. I can't believe Metro and Fiesta are gone. Those were my childhood and teen hang out years. I thought they would always be around. Time capsules of my youth. Even the places I loved in my twenties have all been torn down. The Valley eats childhood memories. Nothing is allowed to age in the Phoenix Sonoran desert. Progress must be made and icons destroyed. I am no luddite and I love shiny new things. I just wish some of these places were able to survive.

[@unfazedreview3000]

Agree with you 100%. Wish they could keep a few of these iconic spots. It’s odd to destroy them all. Vegas has the same bad habit unfortunately. If it were up to me, Metro would be restored back to how it was circa 1985 and listed as a historic building. Same with Christown but try to bring it back to how it was in 1969 style-wise. Same with fiesta, maybe go for a more 90s vibe there. But either way I wish these places would be preserved and utilized.

[@robshepherd7093]

We both can definitely relate to each other. Here's why. Malls are great too. You remember the Rollero Skating rink on 75th avenue & Indian School. Great high school memories plus the mall across the ways called Westridge Mall, which is now Desert Sky

Holy moly, I forgot all about the sand sculptures! Memory unlocked. I used to go into the Miller's Outpost next to what is now Walmart quite often and a lil book store on that side too.

[@MountainManAbe]

I grew up a few miles North from this mall. I used to bike here with my grandpa and brother as a little kid. We would walk around the mall during the hot summer days to cool off too. It used to be much bigger. I mildly remember the Montgomery Ward. The mall used to have the orange brick tile and they had a lot of decorative plants inside which I miss. I remember the dillards shutting down in the early 2000s and when Walmart and Costco moved in. That Costco was my go to Costco since it was so close and convenient. I miss having a Costco in this part of town. I never got to experience this mall in its prime but it was a prominent location in my life while I was growing up in the early 2000s. Especially the harkins and Costco. I think they also had a KB toys in this mall. My parents would often take me to Metro center and Paradise Valley Mall as well.

I used to visit that mall all the time when I was a kid. Grandma would give each of us grandchildren a penny and the monkey would take it and put it in a small can. Sometimes he would tip his little hat. The monkey nipped me once just cutting the skin.... no big deal back then. There also used to be a huge fountain at the entrance. It was loud!

In the north parking lot are some restaurants. In Wal-Mart is Subway. I really like eating and shopping at Ross and The $ Tree . Target is also there.

[@ckrtom2]

Nice exploration. It’s like they’re trying to hold on to that little piece of interior Christown Mall as an homage to the past-though except for maybe a few people like you I wonder if anyone cares or appreciates it in this absentee-aloof society we seem to live in now. I wonder how stand alone restaurants as a whole are doing these days, including fast food joints, as far as profitability. I wonder if any of these places actually ever get busy like back in the glory days-versus just hanging on! I also wonder what if anything is going on with the Metrocenter site.

[@unfazedreview3000]

Thank you! It does make you wonder about the purpose and future of the center of the mall! Would be great to see it revitalized. But most likely it will stay in this state for a while and either end up demolished or turned into some kind of medical campus or storage facility in a few years at best. Word is that Metro Mall will be torn down in the spring sadly. Thanks for watching as always!

[@somni2246]

There's a 60s-style fast-food joint near where I grew up-- that's been around since the early 60s, I believe-- called All American. It's a small stand-alone place, strictly walk-in (with a handfull of small tables and benches outside near the parking lot)-- the building itself looks like something right out of American Graffiti-- but come 6ish PM on a weekend and this place is packed with a line out the door-- nearly without fail. I don't even think the food is anything that special-- and most locals, if they were being honest, would probably admit the same-- but I think it's more the fact that this place is a local institution, with such a strong historical connection to the community, which encourages this almost rabid loyalty from local residents. I have relatives who grew up in the area who moved out to different states, but everytime they come home to visit the first stop on the itinerary is All American for a burger, fries, milkshake and a knish. Which, btw, that's another little idiosyncracy about this place: they sell items like knishes and tuna salad (there's a big Jewish community in the area) which you don't typically associate with 1960s Americana fast-food. Their handmade French-fries, however, are legendary, and it's the local custom to dip the fries in milkshake (don't knock it till you try it). It's kinda nice though; my opinion of the food aside, I'll probably be devastated if there ever comes a day where that place shutters for good.

[@TheSpoon369]

I remember going here as a kid and there was an R/C raffle give away, it must of been 2000 or so. I forgot about this place until one day while driving with my dad his car overheated and we hung out inside the mall and It all came back to me

[@BIGgamez78]

I remember going to Christown Mall daily as a teen from 1991-1996. There was always so much to do around there… there was a bowling alley at the corner of 19th Ave and Bethany Home. Harkins theatre was outside of the mall at 19th Ave and Montebello… it was a big theatre. Had to of been about 50 movies I saw there over the years. I remember the sand sculptures inside the mall. Inside the north entrance of the mall they had this huge bird cage up near the ceiling… I remember they had a bunch of tropical birds. I remember the movie theater upstairs above the food court… I think it was called United Artists. I only watched a few movies there because the Harkins out side had a better selection of movies and was just bigger and better. I remember Montgomery Wards, Dillards, Jc Pennies, the Broadway department store before they closed it and made it in the Walmart. Tilt Arcade and the Chinese restaurant next door to it. Walgreens was inside the mall next to Foot Locker, Carls Jr and Miracle Mile Deli. I remember the Woolworth store. Peter Piper Pizza, Tower Records, Abco Grocery store, Osco Drug store and Subway at the plaza just south of the mall. Damn… had a lot of fun times at the mall and surrounding area back in the 90’s.

[@BIGgamez78]

It’s sad seeing all these malls that we grew up at close down. When I was really young before I started frequenting Christown Mall it was Maryvale Mall that I used to go to daily…. 1984-1989. I lived across the street from there and would go to the Maryvale Mall, the dollar theater or Maryvale swimming pool. I haven’t been to that area since probably 1997 and that whole area changed drastically… looks nothing like it used to. I also remember my mom would take me to Westridge Mall back in the late 80’s, I haven’t been to that mall since probably 97 also. I remember Park Central Mall in the downtown area at Central and Osborn. That mall had a Dillards and a few other big department stores. It was the first Mall in Phoenix. I had only went there a handful of times between 1993-1995. Also vaguely remember a mall called Valley West Mall that was located around 59th Ave and Northern. I remember going there a few times in the early 90’s. Of course Metro Center and PV Mall were other places I’d frequent. Late 90’s for Metro Center and the 2000’s for PV Mall. Sad to see all these mall close down or pretty much dead and not what they were once. I think in my opinion only Arrowhead Nall and Scottsdale Fashion Square are the only malls that are even worth going to anymore. Really wish someone would have redeveloped the Metro Center area and either get that mall back up and running or turn it into a huge theme park…. I think there was plans to do that years ago.

[@patrickburch3723]

The Sand Sculptures started as a promo for summer reading program. The big dragons was called Bookman the Dragon.(I think). It was such a hit they extended it for a couple of years. It was a big draw. I took my kids several times. They loved different sculptures. Each year they would change the main feature in the center of the mall. That's when JC Penney's was right in front of the center. Before Costco was there. Went there lot too. 😕 Sad about all the malls.

Thanks for the tour! It actually looks better than I imagined. I grew up around Christown back in the '60s and worked at Montgomery Ward in 1980. It was a whole different world back then. The main entrance was called the Court of Fountains because it had these big fountains in the middle. In the summer the main doors would whoosh open and you'd be hit by the cool air and the scent and sound of the fountains. Straight ahead was JCPenney. Christown was a lively place to hang out especially on the weekends. I found this video of the way it looked back in the day, if interested: kzbin.info/www/bejne/f4K2Xmp3bp2perMsi=igsQeKzXfBfnzP9b

This is a really small mall with relatively strong foot traffic during peak hours after schools and during the weekends. A *dead* mall are these massive places with absolutely no foot traffic so to speak even in ideal times. The entire surrounding area is also very active, which is not common for a dead mall. You really need to reassess what constitutes as "dead" here.

[@unfazedreview3000]

Nah, compared to how it was it’s a ghost town. Dead Mall term is to draw in viewers but I stand by it, it’s on the way out. It’s a sad shell of what it used to be. Look up the definition yourself it truly can fit different levels of occupancy. “Slowly declining mall propped up by Wal Mart and adjacent Target that is not connected to the main Mall” just doesn’t have the same ring to it. But yeah it’s thriving, totally… it’s on the way out home slice.

[@MrBlackstar00]

The problem today is corporations forgot how to make real money. The ideas of the70's/80,s/90's where geared towards specific shoppers, the ones who bring in money. Kid's- bring parents to the mall. Teens- buy all sorts of food, shoes, clothing and also bring parents with money. The mall esthetics , fountains, kids play areas, REAL arcades, All help to harness the atmosphere of comfortable shopping. This is what you call revolving door revenue. The demand for malls is still there, boomers, GenX, millennials, and even some Gen Z want this. Time to get back to what works and abandon what does not work. Wake up corporate America, dull and boring is OUT.
