Cleveland Mall Memories Vol. 2

The early days of The Galleria, Great Lakes Mall and Great Northern Mall were a lot of fun. See if these historical photos bring back shopping memories of the 80s and 90s for you.
Cleveland's Galleria opened in 1987 and featured stores like Banana Republic, Williams Sonoma, Eddie Bauer, Ann Taylor, Express, Indians Team Shop and Brookstone. Restaurants included Key West Cafe and Sweetwater's Cafe Sausalito.
North Olmsted's Great Northern Mall opened in 1976 and expanded in the decades after to include over 1,200,000 square feet of retail shopping space.
Mentor's Great Lakes Mall opened in 1961 and had large anchor stores like Higbee's, Horne's, May Company, Dillard's, Kaufmann's and Sears.
Special thanks to the Cleveland Public Library Photography Collection for providing some of the photos, including the postcard of the Galleria.
