Rolling Acres Mall *Former Location*

Iconic Midwestern dead mall famous for its long empty corridors and the pure ‘Backrooms’ type feeling of a once-busy retail space, left behind. Opened in 1975 in Akron, Ohio, it became one of the most photographed examples of American mall decline before being demolished and replaced between 2016 and 2019, with Amazon building a distribution facility on the former site soon after.
