Went to the Mall Formerly Known As Searstown (now known as The Mall At Whitney Field) in Leominster, MA, USA. I did some videos and photos for Jenny (The Wabi-Sabi Writer) as she grew up with me near this mall. This was the mall we, as teenagers, always wanted to go to on the weekends. Now it’s a lot of closed store fronts covered in history, “come spend money here” requests, inspirational quotes, overall it just shows the end of Malls in the online age.
Unfortunately the last video is too large to post (and I don’t know how to split it into two smaller videos).
Thank you for posting these (and sharing) - it is so important to keep the memories. Woolworths and Jordan Marsh.......

DeleteBrings back so many memories
ReplyDeleteWe tried to live there on the weekends!
DeleteI’ve got to look up how to split a video into two parts so I can get that last video up (Blogger wouldn’t except it, saying it was too large to post).
