Miss the days where you could look for cool stuff in mall stores instead of having to know exactly what you're looking for/being disappointed with online shopping.
That's a shame... that Mall is in better shape than I expected. Sucks they are converting it to open air... doubt it will bring in more customers in the Winter.
Except for Bergen county, ALL of NJ is BROKE!
Thanks for the tour. As a mallrat in the late 70s and early 80s, this was one of my malls. Sad to see it like this. I go to Premium Outlets which is a nearby outdoor shopping centef owned by Simon Properties. As nice as it is, its not much fun shopping outside in the rain, snow, cold or heat. I don't get the demalling of malls.
The place you mentioned was a Ruby Tuesday and remember going there several times over the years and my dad and his friend would often go shopping 🛍️ there and it's such a shame they are turning into a outdoor mall once again
So sad Mall's are dying out. Call me old school but id rather go to a mall than a boring box store any day
Thanks for posting this one! This was one of my local malls when I grew up in central NJ. This was always a money mall, lots of good stores.
Just down from Monmouth was Seaview mall that died a number of years ago. They took down most of the mall and and turned what survived into independent stores. Most are doing ok.
I really miss arcades. Especially mall arcades. Sadly I bet it cost more to maintain and replace the games than the money they generate. Plus, with their being so much crime in malls now, you really don’t want places where people start hanging out where there’s no supervision.
Back in the 80s, store owners in nearby Red Bank would lament how The Mall was killing their businesses. Who knew their revenge would come within 40 years.
I lived about 3 miles from that mall until about 18 months ago. That mall began going downhill when I was first stationed at Fort Monmouth (about a mile away) in 2001. The escalators next to the food court used to go down to a big electronics store which then became a workout place.
Man, you have to appreciate what is so you never regret what was. We as a society never stop to really appreciate what we have while it's still accessible. Great video, my friend. Thank you!
This was my all-time favorite mall from the 70’s to maybe the early 00’s, with JC Penney and Macy’s the stores I most frequented. It was always full of people and sound. Sad to see it a ghost town now, but I guess I’m an example of the many shoppers who abandoned the mall in the 21st century. Thank you for the look back.
Monmouth Mall use to be THEE place to go to. Before the "modern" redo, the mall itself use to glow and attract tons people.
As much as I love being outside in the spring and summer, I always prefer shopping inside.
this was my childhood mall in the 70s and 80s - grew up in Long Branch. I remember the original outdoor mall. Montgomery Wards/Alexanders was right at the end of the original corridor, likely where AMC is now. There was a huge Woolworths where Old Navy is/was. Bamberger's Clearance was where Barnes & Noble is. Thanks for the video tour, which was surreal - I could name many of the original stores, long erased beneath other storefronts.
I’ve never really got the whole idea of strip, malls and shopping outdoors! I’m from the Midwest where it gets bitterly cold during the winter and an outdoor mall would be the last place I would want to go to shopping…
Ah....CALDOR...........always liked going to that store in Manchester, CT.....i think they closed there, many moons ago............good vid
Across from Lord and Taylor on the 2nd floor was Friendly's, One the 2nd floor going in the opposite direction was the KB Toy store and the gap and the baby gap. On the second floor to the right of Boscovs was the Cookie store Mrs. Fields.
Thanks for taking us along on your the walk through. This mall looks to be in great shape. It’s a pity they are demolishing it in favor of open air use which doesn’t make sense for the climate.
