You're welcome

Even though this happened in 1987, just two years before I was born, there were moments where I just wanted to break down and cry because I miss the Indian Mall so much. And there were moments where I had hoped to see my family there somewhere.

So many memories in that place

I was 7 years old when this was filmed. I miss that place. There was nothing like Indian Mall in Jonesboro.

I won't say how I came across this. It's too long of a story but I typed it in for random chance ha ha. Thank you for uploading this. I'm from Jonesboro and loved the mall. Turtle Creek came after me so I don't count that ha ha. I have soooo many great memories of there including eating at Wyatt's. The video of the putt putt place is great too.

You have no idea how much this means to me. One of my earliest memories is walking through this mall w/ my aunt. It had to of been 06 - 08 because it was dead by then, but still accessible to the public. For my entire life, all I’ve had is that memory, and the few pictures available on the internet. I didn’t even think any video footage of this mall existed. I couldn’t believe my eyes when I found this video. Thank you, so much for preserving the mall, thank you for sharing. If you happened to have any more footage, that would be awesome. Thank you.

I wish I had more. Was just filming the family at the time. Never realized that some 37 years later it would be a time capsule of sorts. 😊

Thanks for posting. Saw stores I had forgotten were there.

I think I saw my Mother sitting on a bench with a young child of about 8 or 9 at the very beginning she went to the mall often with her friends, she passed away un 92 so it is quite. Possible it was ger

I lost my mother, who's in the video holding my baby sister, , in 2016. My life has never been the same.
