Here is another shot of the food court, this time the back portion sometime around January 1991. The Tilt Arcade can be seen in the corner.

Gatto Pizza and Circle Café & Deli had not opened yet at this time. If anyone knows when these two places opened, particularly Circle Café & Deli, please let me know. I am quite curious.

Not sure who these folks are, but this is a picture of the mall’s food court and Carousel in I believe January 1991. Amazing how well the mall would light up at nighttime.

My apologies for posting this rather late in the evening. Got busy today and lost track of time.

Anyway, this is an aerial shot of the mall from not long after it opened, circa 1976/1977.

Picture of the Day: 11/2/2015

This is a racecar display outside the mall’s food court sometime in 1995, possibly February. Part of the Carousel can be seen in the background. If only I could get a close-up shot of the food court when it was still open.

Lately, I’ve been fortunate enough to discover some more pictures of the mall, thanks to generous donations and the new search tool on Facebook. Because of this, I have decided to bring back the Picture of the Day. Plus, I really need to bring action back to this blog.

This particular picture was taken sometime in the 1980s. This was the back entrance to the mall where Piccadilly Cafeteria and the Circle Six Theatres were. I remember entering the mall quite a bit through here.

It’s back! First post of 2013! This was the smaller fountain that was located just outside Montgomery Ward.

This is an aerial view of the mall from February 3, 1993. I was probably inside riding the Carousel when this was taken.
