I cried watching this. Seeing so many people gather to admire and pay respects was so moving. I miss the days when it was packed and lively inside. The mall got to feel love one last time.
I got emotional when I saw the amount of love from the community to visit the mall for one last time and pay tribute to 43 years of serving that community. So heartfelt. 💕
@@rachelrivera91 The amount of people that came to touch, see, and admire the mall during the last weeks was amazing to witness. I'm so glad it wasn't forsaken. So glad people truly loved it. It could have been SAVED. And that's the part that hurts most!
Great video!!! 🤗❤️🤗❤️🤗❤️ I don't remember when I lived in Elgin, Illinois if I ever drove down this this mall to visit it. Since I'm in Rockford, Illinois I couldn't get to see this last days/day of this mall because of car problems and my husband's change of is schedule of him working 4 days of the week from 7:00pm to 7:00am but it's so sad to know another well known mall in my home state of Illinois is closing up just so sad. ☹️☹️☹️
I hope when the mall gets redeveloped into new open air concept they keep some of the esthetics from Stratford Square Mall because the architecture is so beautiful. The mall will be missed!❤😂
In my humble opinion, Stratford Square Mall was one of the most beautifully designed, aesthetically pleasing mall I’ve ever seen. I do hope they preserve the beautiful & unique architecture for historical & architectural significance. It would be a damn shame if they didn’t & a disservice to the community to demolish a work of art.

I used to go to the mall every single day for years, and I am upset that it closed now. I have to go to wood field mall and it note the same
Sad to see this favorite mall of mine close and I live about 40 miles from it.
Great memories there
I see myself!
Sad to see it go
The mall space got fenced off today but the Kohls is still open.
Sad to see Mall Go
