Logan's Run location: the DMC Apparel Mart (1970)

You know what that place needed? A Love Shop!

[@hamradiocq]

This is so freaky to see. As a kid, born in 1973, we would come down from Oklahoma to order clothes for our little shop. I remember this place pretty well, circa 1977. I remember being bored while they bought clothes, and waiting around for them to drink coffee in that big atrium area. Super sad it's torn down. We would almost always eat at the Old San Francisco steakhouse as well.

[@hamradiocq]

As a side note, there was also an apparel market in Kansas City we would go to, but it was a smaller venue. What's interesting about this, is, in the 70's my family, and relatives, owned a handful of women's clothing shops in NE Oklahoma, Joplin and SE Kansas. When the malls came in in the 80s that hurt us...but we did move our stores to the malls... Then the big department stores (JC Penny, Neuman's, Dillards) came later into the malls and really hurt us. The death knell for main street stores like ours, was when Wal-Mart started selling clothes. Almost over night our store business died as we couldn't compete with Wal-Mart.

[@hamradiocq]

Some of the labels I remember as a kid, were 'Hang Ten', 'Act III'

Too bad this was torn down. I would have loved visiting this place.

[@julianmunoz8829]

Oh, it's there, but the new Dallas Market Center is at 2100 N Stemmons. The original building was at 2300 N Stemmons. It was right next door to the Renaissane which is still there. If you'l notice, you can still see the outline of where the building was. :-(

[@sdsuman1]

Another Logan’s Run filming location the Fort Worth Water Gardens are still there and an awesome place to visit if you’ve never been there before.

[@thettguy]

This video made it sound like this building would be around for ever.

[@Wezwolf]

@@julianmunoz8829 Why say "Oh it's there" When it's just a pile of rubble? It was demolished. All that's there is the place it once stood. There's just a new center with the same name.

[@Greathall75]

LOL! Yours is my favorite comment ever posted on this channel. I crack up everytime I read it.

[@ronriddle4381]

My Mom (Wanda Riddle) worked here at The Dallas Apparel Mart in the ‘80’s for a manufacturer named Fashion Initiatives. She managed the showroom by booking the buyers and hiring the models to wear the women’s clothing lines for the retail store buyers…two to three seasons ahead of deliveries.

[@randovideoman7661]

I feel lucky I got to see this place on the inside.

[@Greathall75]

I feel the same way. I was lucky to spend an afternoon there in 2005. I had no idea that a year later it would be demolished.

[@capsizebrian]

I wish the film had shown more establishing wide views that included the top, as in that post card. It really shows the unique and different design of the mall. Detractors of the film love to say "gee they used a mall as a futuristic city" but this was way different then most malls of the day much less current ones.

[@sdm7372]

"And see the shows ...and more shows...and have a drink or lunch...and enjoy market... and never leave the building. And if they die...we can totally dissolve their body into oblivion...exactly where they are lying...on the floor..."

LOL!! They could have renewed on Carousel. Suckers.

Lastday, Capricorn 15's. Year of the City: Twenty-Two Seventy-Four. Carousel begins. This is the time of renewal.

I don't think I ever went here but there is a strange familiarity of being a tiny tot climbing some stairs. That may have been anywhere.

[@Doggeslife]

Dallas Market Center is a 5 million square foot (460,000 m2) wholesale trade center in Dallas, Texas, the United States, located at 2200 Stemmons Freeway, housing showrooms which sells consumer products including gifts, lighting, home décor, apparel, fashion accessories, shoes, tabletop/housewares, gourmet, floral, and holiday products. The marketplace is closed to the public but open to certified retail buyers and interior designers, manufacturers, and industry professionals.

[@pappysprite]

Is that Don Loper at 2:40?

[@Greathall75]

Certainly looks close, but I'm not convinced. At the time this was filmed (1970) Don Loper would have been ~63 years old. Comparing the guy in the film against photos of Loper, I see a close resemblance in the nose and eyes, but the checks and ear look quite different. Unfortunately, I can't find any photo of Loper past mid-1960s. If we could find some pics of him closer to 1970 it might solve the mystery.

[@pappysprite]

@@Greathall75 Ive looked again....I'm 100% convinced it is him. I never forget a face. That is him.

JFK was on his way to the Trade Mart. Logan's Run was filmed at the Apparel Mart. Both buildings were part of the Dallas Market Center campus, however the Apparel Mart was not built until after the death of JFK.
