Morrestown Mall suffers a major department store. One out of the 10 Lord & Taylor’s that are closing is located here. L&T closed their 5th Avenue flagship store at the beginning of the year. The mall is struggling also, that doesn’t help it reputation. The mall is located near Philadelphia in NJ. They did bot announce a closing date for the store. Currently Morrestown Mall is in a tax settlement with the township that the mall is located in.
As my return post to the blog, I decided the best mall to write about is the now-demolished Greendale Mall in Worcester, Massachusetts. Greendale Mall was a very different place in design, department stores, and its tiny footprint. However, this small footprint was a key marketing tactic that the mall used in its earlier years and was proven to have worked because of how successful the mall was up until the 2010s. I can see what was so appealing about this mall before it died and it is unfortunate that I never got to see it at that stage of its life. Greendale Mall opened in 1987 and was a product of New England Development also developed the Arsenal Mall in Watertown which was one of my childhood malls I have many memories there in its final years. I am very familiar with the now-shuttered mall and can tell you firsthand that Arsenal and Greendale are very similar architecturally and in many other ways as well. At Greendale's opening, it was the second mall in the city of Worce
