Once one of the largest malls in the world, that operated from October 1979 until its closure in February 2019; became a vast closed complex of empty corridors and atriums that became a landmark of the 2000s American retail decline. Located in West Mifflin, Pennsylvania, its sheer scale and abandoned halls made it a frequent subject of dead-mall photography and videos before demolition was completed on April 30, 2026.
