Enfield Square Mall: A Not So Merry Dead Mall Christmas Story...

[@susant.1620]

Always sad. Dying malls are taking a lot of nostalgia with them.

[@candaceparker7283]

It amazes me how many stores, in many Malls, survived the Great Recession but crashed between 2016 to 2020.

[@fleabittenadventures]

2020 seems to have done the most damage from what I can tell.

[@hmm-zoolol]

Amazon didn't help. Although it was fun going to the mall and seeing different people, and things that were for sale.

[@valkiriie]

This mall was super fun in the late 90s. It had a music store where we bought cassette and later cd singles, an express, a toy store, and a ton of kiosks in the middle. There was even a guy painting peoples portraits with chalk. My mom and a few of her senior citizen friends still walk for exercise there.

[@kevinkelley3906]

Cassette singles were the first and they were great

[@kjcolby1978-pr8wf]

My Uncle Ernie was part of a mall walkers group there in the 90s! Good to hear they still do that

[@fleabittenadventures]

Yes, I remember! I went there a lot between about 1994 and 1998 or so.

[@knux7468]

I saw this mall full of life as a kid, and now as an adult its a hollow shell of what it once was.. Enfield sucks, town officials ran the town to the ground. So many empty buildings, majority of the historical areas destroyed, all for money.

[@ryansmurda1552]

Same thing in my city!

[@thomasl.4081]

What you mean with "historical areas"?

[@cys-fi6230]

I remember this being a nice clean little mall with tons of teenagers around late 90’s early 2000’s. I used to work at the Ruby Tuesdays at the Holyoke Mall so I sometimes had to swing by Enfield to pick up supplies for my Manager. The three main Malls I remember going to were Holyoke, Eastfield mall spfld and this one in Enfield.

[@fleabittenadventures]

Holyoke's really the only one hanging on at this point. I miss that Ruby Tuesdays.

I'm telling ya, Costco moving into our mall here in Champaign IL absolutely saved it and it's always packed on the weekends. I wish more could do the same.

I actually did a dead mall tour of duty. From here I went to the Eastfield Mall in Springfield MA, then ended up at the Fairfield Mall in Chicopee. Both great little Malls but are now defunct. 😢

I grew up spending a lot of time in Enfield where my grandparents lived, I remember begging my grand mother to take us to the arcade there in the 80s and maybe into the 90s... fun fact, there was a second Enfield mall anchored by Bob's Stores, its now a plaza with outward facing stores, but in the 70s and 80s it was an indoor mall, albeit a very small one, and they had great baseball card shows there on Sundays, and another great arcade

[@fleabittenadventures]

Yeah, I had heard rumors it was closing, but I guess not.

[@walterengler5709]

What is amazing is how the story for many of these malls is very similar. They open to lots of traffic and often two to four anchors depending on size. Then the anchors die and .. *poof*. Like Jefferson Square in Joliet. Opened with Wards and Wieboldt (and a Cinema) as the anchors. I used to walk from home over the railroad tracks to the mall to shop around, visit the food courts, and the gaming place (pinball!). But after only 9 years, Wieboldt's wobbled and finally fell down (sorry, old joke). Oh they tried to fill in that anchor with a Menards (home depot like place). But eventually Menards cut off access directly into the mall (too much theft was the rumor) and that side died. The Cinema went under as people preferred newer large theaters for viewing (and showing second runs of movies was a fools errand with expanding DVD stores). Then Wards of course went belly up. And finally Menards bought what was left, and rebuilt the whole thing into a new Menards Superstore (with some outlier businesses around it). Outlier stores also failed over the years (Sizzler .. where I got my first job .. which died to the health crazes). It seems all malls and businesses are mere snapshots in times, limited items that appear and then fade away....

[@zoeazsss5035]

One of my most favorite and memorable malls,, I always loved the music,,, great to dance along the halls.. :)

I grew up hanging out and shopping at this mall. I would come here once a week as a teenager back when everyone used it as a chill spot, and shopped here when I was old enough to have my own money. So many memories, very sad. It's just the way it is.

I moved to this part of the country relatively recently and I pass by where this mall is often. I knew there was kind of a dying mall there but wow…This is the deadest mall I’ve ever seen. I’m kind of fascinated by it. Thanks for sharing. I’m wondering if curiosity will get the best of me and I’ll wander into the target one of these days.

[@-force-2339]

I'm not from the US and haven't been there before but I was always fascinated by typical malls as you see them in movies from the 80s, 90s and early 2000s. They seemed to be so full of life and things to do and in many cases (as I can guess from the comments on this video) they were very social spots too with - people meeting there together as teenagers, getting to know new people and so on. It's sad to see that so many malls are slowly dying out. Where I come from such large malls are not very common, we have a few in bigger cities but they are still nothing compared to the ones in the US like in the video. I really wish I could go to one of the big US malls during christmas season - not really to go shopping but to experience the busy atmosphere.

Some of the stores have off days. I go to Haven every Wednesday, and Second Floor is open Thursday thru the weekend. The video game store moved 2 stores into the Holyoke mall. I'm sad the pop store is moving. I do like supporting them still. It's sad cause about a month ago, they took out the claw machines. I would play and win things every week, but then it disappeared.

[@pixeldeath5846]

Sad to see this place the way it is now. My friends and I used to go her often in our teens (In the early 2000s), they had a good music shop and a Funcoland, Funcoland was always a treat to visit. It was always a nice change to come here instead of Holyoke mall since you could visit all the stores you wanted without having to walk so much. My girlfriend lives in that area and we went on our first date at that Cinemark(Last year before it closed), she was heartbroken to hear it was closing.

I remember this was one of THE malls to go to. I remember Orange Julius was down by where Sears was in the 70's and into the early 80's. There used to be trees in the main walkway roughly where the diamond patterns are in the tile floor. Nino's Pizza in the 90's last location was where the kebab place is, and their first spot was down by the Target entrance. My grandmother worked at G-Fox for many years and also for a short time after it was Filene's until she retired. As a local, it's a sad thing to see this mall in such decline.

But yes I believe the mall should have been foreclosed for the poor maintenance and the high vacancy rate of this.

I was just here this past Sunday specifically visiting to see how this is during the Christmas rush (and getting lunch at the Cane's out front) because otherwise I've only been here once and it was very dead. It was a tiny bit busier than this but I think that was mostly because there was a holiday market going on that day. Even then it was still less busy during the Christmas rush weekend than the CT Post Mall is during its least busy times of the year. Meanwhile the parking lot was overflowed into the old Sears lot area as the Target was absolutely packed, I'm pretty sure it's the only active part of the mall. Even the Mall Santa not being busy, that was something I thought I'd never see. Honestly was just really sad walking around there and seeing it all.

It wasn't until the second time I was in the area getting food from the Cane's there where I went to get some thing from Target and saw it was a mall when I walked in, was my first time in a nearly dead mall because the only other malls I've really been to at that point were the CT Post and Trumbull which are way more alive all things considered.

I'd think one would rather shop in person than take risks in wrong colors, sizes, dealing with lost merchandise, theft, and trips to a post office. Why not try an item on and make sure it fits one time. What do you think is the largest contributor for all these stores and malls to close. It seems so strange as people need activity and clothes, shoes, household/ business items, etc.
