I grew up going to this mall. A lot of memories here. I miss it and I wish they would do something good with all the space. It’s just been an eyesore in Pasadena for years
Seeing that food court brought me nostalgia because before Chick Fil A was built closer to where I live, my family and I would have to drive to this mall and order from the food court. My mom would occasionally take us inside the mall but we normally go there solely for CFA. When there was a CFA built closer, we stopped going to that mall. Seeing it now makes me want to visit it because I'm weirdly obsessed with dead malls and would love to go inside a mall when it's near quiet or less crowded than a normal mall.
My kids were born in the Pasadena area 9 and 10 years ago, and we’ve been to this mall quite a few times. If was dead even pre 2020 but it’s sad to see that area can’t support its own economy. Oil and gas is never good for the surrounding communities unfortunately since big money will never settle down in an area like that.
I went into the backrooms a few months ago, extremely eerie the way its completely empty and inactive since I spent most of my childhood going there where it was packed.
I worked as security there in the summer of 2020 just as Covid was taking hold and it’s so sad to see it has gone into even further decline since then. When I worked there the sears was still open and there were three or four food places open.
@@peoplenoisehtx San Jacinto Mall has been demolished. It's just an empty lot at the moment. I believe they're supposed to build a huge shopping center there.
I used to live down the street from this mall and the last time I went, it was depressing from how empty it was. I remember when the food court was thriving and to see it like empty and no sign of any human in sight is eerie
you should checkout mall of the mainland on 45 south it actually died and came back. I haven't been in years but i heard it was doing good now and hella nostalgic
Well it was inevitable that this happened. I used to go there when I was a kid tip im 15 now and it’s sad that this happened. I used to use it when I was walking because it was too cold outside. Well it was nice wall it lasted but all good things must come to an end
Around the time of the retheming of the mall to ita Hispanic theming, the overall qualitu noticeably dropped. It felt...cheap. It wasn't nearly as inviting or high class in appearance to Baybrook, Galleria, or the Woodlands.
im sure theres lot of reasons but theirs too many upsides to turning these dead malls into condominiums or studio apartment the tennants could say my place is at palais royal or right by the food court, or hey im on the second floor of sears
This was was great even up to 2006 with all major anchor stores all there including Sears, Dillards, Macy's. Once it got the mexican name "Macroplaza" named after Monterrey, Mex. as expected, it catered to the now predominantly hispanic community and became very rachet as many here can agree.

Ahhh, my hometown mall. Great video!
You should do greenspoint mall in Houston,Tx before they demolish it

My childhood mall. Who remembers Gadzooks!!

Love this! Keep up the good work!

I used to visit this mall a lot in the 90's. Sad to see where it's at now
I used to work for the Santa holiday pictures years ago and the tarped room at 8:47 was a storage room and little changing area for our Santa lol
i see you’re in my area, i love your videos, any way you could do videos on Mall of the Mainland in Texas City, or even San Jacinto Mall in Baytown?
there’s also an abandoned properly at 29.45557° N, 95.04712° W in Dickinson
@@cancerchristine929 Those are all close! We will look into them

Please do a video on the mainland mall in Texas city!! Super old but good memories! It’s a whole different place now
Would be super cool to do a full walk around when it’s is completely abandoned like a pt 2 if it ever officially closes
@@sebleal4384 It’s actually about to be renovated.

@@chancecurtiss9885 We’ll look into it!
You should go to mall of the mainland in Texas city it’s not abandoned but has been transformed into a completely thing with schools and restaurants
There was great food there at one time doesn't look like no more

Many empty malls are changing to apartment complexes
Are there gonna be more stores open like finish line and foot locker and also dillard’s
@@jacematthews2874 The Dillards closed a long time ago, same with the finish line. I’m not sure what’s going to be put in their place

Is it going to get more stores?
@@sherrihicks8466 Yes, the mall manager told me they were going to be turning it into an outdoor outlet mall.
Really? So they’re going to demolish in similar fashion to the San Jacinto mall in Baytown?
Is this is gonna be a new mall
Got some recent photos of the Plaza if you want em
Do Northline Mall!!
Supposedly NSYNC performed here
I visted this mall last year with some friends, even the security guard was like, "What are yall even doing here, theres nothing to do"
The security we dealt with got mad at us for walking in with skateboards, we didn’t skate in the mall but we did in the parking lot.
Me and group of friends rode our bikes thru there in 2000 and they tried to catch us but we made it in and out
You should go to Greenspoint mall
