Former Super Kmart - Ashtabula, OH

Originally opened as Kmart in 1992 after relocating from its former location at 4941 North Ridge Road West in Saybrook. In 2000, Kmart was expanded and converted into a Super Kmart store, Super Kmart would close down in 2016 and remain vacant ever since.

 

Ashtabula Mall opened in 1992 and was developed by Cafaro Company. It had six original anchor stores which were Carlisle’s, Dillard’s, JCPenney, Kmart, Phar-Mor and Sears. The mall began to decline in the mid 90s as a Walmart store was built literally right next door to the mall, stores begin to pull out one by one and by the early 2000s most of the mall was vacant. Ashtabula Mall changed its name in 2008 to Ashtabula Towne Square as the mall was sold to a different company. Today, Ashtabula Towne Square has 20 open stores out of its 70 spaces.
