THE REAL TOURS: #36 Palmer Park Mall - Raw & Real Retail

[@ericeckman9470]

It reminds me of Coventry mall there

[@ednarupp1631]

Reminds me so much of how the Camp Hill Mall in PA used to be, with the pet shop and Boscov's.

Those pretzels look good and a change of pace from the more known pretzel shops. Cool mall tour, thanks RRR!

I grew up near this mall. That pet store has been there since the 1980s and on the other side of that entrance was the arcade where we all hang out. This was before cell phones. The Atari was our video game system. If you wanted to see your friends, you went to the mall. You didn't have snapchat. I miss those days. I think this mall has survived because of its location and that is small and less expensive to run.

Nice cozy mall with the beautiful skylights giving it personality. Every time I see the flags, I know it's an East Coast mall. Stores in Minnesota never have flags.

Next time I'm in P-burg, I'll hop over the border and grab a pretzel.

It's never this dead when ever I'm in there. Not that it's busy by any means but its not like the Pburg mall used to be. I really hope malls make a comeback. But I know it's not gonna happen. As much as I hated waiting in line at Christmas it was just nice to be around people...even if we were all miserable shopping. Don't know about anyone else but online shopping sucks anymore. Half the stuff is so poor quality I end up sending it back meaning I have to drive to a location to send it back defeating the convenience of online shopping. I'm at the point I want to physically see what I'm getting before I spend my money.

I was at Eastfield mall last week and it was totally dead like all the neons were turned off and also the fountain there was practically nothing there only like 3 or 4 stores so theres no way the video would match what I'm seeing right and that's a sure thing right? And if I watched the video of Eastfield when I was there it wouldn't come close to matching what I'm seeing that it would look like that's not the video for that mall and it's for a different mall.

[@RawRealRetail]

the mall is closed now. Plus neons isn't a word.

@@RawRealRetail so Holy Yoke is the only mall in that area now right? But was Eastfield and Holy Yoke near each other since they're both in Springfield or were they a little far apart?
