“Also on the site was Condon’s Department Store, a locally owned department store with a location in downtown Charleston which was founded in the 1800’s. The mall also featured a 2-screen General Cinema and national tenants such as Revco Drug, Radio Shack, Thom McAn, Hickory Farms, Piece Goods Shop, Friedman’s Jewelers and a mix of locally owned shops.”
This is also from Deadmalls.com and is about the mall that was on the highway right between my house and my grandparents house growing up. I was just telling Lee about this place last night, I was talking about Condon’s which I said is the best place to buy Buster Brown saddle shoes, or lead crystal vases.
I think it’s odd that they don’t even mention the weirdness of the DMV being located just inside a backdoor with parking near the stores’ dumpsters. That’s where I got my permit.
This is where you go when you get a remote control car for Christmas and you want to drive it around. Also good for standing in line to see the first Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movie.
Your mom won’t let you bike over to the billiards place there by yourself, but if you want to play Street Fighter (which just came out), you’ll break that rule.
