Nothing special, nothing grand - just a few postcards of old shopping malls. No one ever thought the term "old" would apply, of course; these were the shining temples of modern ease and convenience. If these postcards tell you anything, it's this:
The malls of the early 60s were quite incredible. And the malls of the 70s were hideous dreck-pits, the likes of which we may never hope to see again.
If you're looking for Southdale, it's been moved here to Minneapolis Modern.
