Relive The Frenzy When Crossgates Had It's Enormous Grand Opening

shesnailie on YouTube

Hard to believe that Crossgates opened in 1984.

Hard to believe that Crossgates Mall has been around for 40 years but here we are getting ready to celebrate that anniversary on March 4th.

Who remembers the original layout for the mall? Who remembers any or all of the original stores? We can name a few I think. Ormond, Merry Go Round, Kay Bee Toys, Caldor, JC Penny (which is still there), Jordan Marsh, Filene's, The Limited.

Can you add to those names?

Now, let's really test your memory. Do you remember the "promo" video that was released about the mall?

 

Were you there when the Grand Opening took place?
