The Mall Shopping Center


Horseheads, New York - circa 1970

Another great interior shot from "The Mall" (now Arnot Mall), in Horseheads, with its unique draping Spanish gardens looking vibe! Truly a quintessential 1970's shopping mall photo.

  1. Not too shabby. I've been to some malls that look more out-of-date than this... and this picture s thirty some odd years old?

  2. This one is almost like walking through the Botanic Gardens. What's does the red lettering on the left-hand side say?

  3. Looks like the blue part of the sign is "Rexall." Maybe a drug store?

  4. Ha, yeah that's one way to put it, Cora. Dead is another.

    Not sure yet which store that is on the left there. It may be a drug store, like Scott said.

  5. It does look like it might say Rexall that's why I asked. That's what I thought it may have said.

  7. Does anyone remember the name of the store that also had a lunch counter? Would have been there in early 90s.

    Thanks.
