“At the wheel for a new deal”
Sometimes I can’t resist temptation. I went back and bought it. The price was reasonable and best of all ,the deciding reason, it was made in Jersey City.
A girl needs to hit the shops once and a while so her wardrobe does not get a little stale. I am on the hunt for dresses and skirts today so wish me luck.
these were taken a while back - i am hoping that as these are all in prime london locations that most of them have reopened under new management and with new purpose.

I've just completed a commissioned build of some retail park units using the Kingsway Models RPU kit. Using two kits has produced two half relief units and one full depth unit.
Each unit has two store fronts.
The two kits provide two car park areas which are joined together here.
An officially released post card for Westfarms: "A regional retail development, is designed to be the most complete marketplace of its kind in New England. Westfarms site spans the boundaries of three outstanding Connecticut communities: West Hartford, Farmington and New Britain."
Ah yes, the 1970's. This comes to us from a time inconceivable to today's generations. A time when malls were a thing of destination, boasted on laminate post cards as vacation-like attractions with unbound amenities like air conditioning, imported terrazzo and marble floors, full-service boutique and specialty stores, gardens and water displays.
This is one three known post cards sold to promote Westfarms mall.
This very rare vantage point features the Hartford-based Sage-Allen anchor, which was one of three department stores at Westfarms upon its opening in September 1974. While no year is disclosed on this card, we can imagine this was within the tender years of Westfarms mall's opening -- one of the most unbelievable interior shopping centers of its time.
We can immediately identify the staples of yesteryear shopping mall charm: a bevy of plants, odd sculpture art and, of course, a grandiose fountain to garnish the luxury. We also see some Taubman-design mainstays as well: sharp, modern and meticulously clean geometry at floor and ceiling level, done with absolute, uncompromised elegance and simplicity the Taubman company was pre-eminent for.
We've covered those illuminated twin-towers before; just one of a dozen or so throughout the mall, designed by the now late Wen-Ying Tsai. These were the only feature to be removed fairly early on, not surprisingly as guests likely tampered with them quite a bit. These lighted towers were mildly interactive, reactive to sound via hanging microphones strewn about the mall. Guests would light the towers based on sounds emitted. Tsai's pillars of this community would go nearly forgotten today as they are somewhat obscured in the mall's history but also not listed on his own chronicle of works.
Unlike our other two post cards, we see an array of bygone sights and storefronts not seen before: the once empirical men's dress shoe chain Florsheim still exists in name today though their generous acreage here at Westfarms is long gone.
Nut House, a shop entirely dedicated to exotic array of nuts and nearby CB Perkins Tobacco, both genuinely 1970's-era chains that would have no business in a mall setting today. Perkins, which was owned by the Stop & Shop Companies (which was also under the same umbrella for Bradlees) could also be enjoyed inside the mall at this time.
On the lower level, we have what looks to be an integrated, open-air cafe. To the right of Sage-Allen is Fields Hosiery, a tame destination for ladies' intimates (unless you count that orange shag carpet!) and Natural Cosmetics, one of the most believably timeless looking shops represented.
We cannot forget that memorable glossy, piano black Information tower, a kiosk dedicated to stroller rentals and general mall information. Yes, it still exists in some form today. These beacon-like Information towers were yet another Taubman mall feature, which was finally retired in 2001..
Of course, the main feature here is Sage-Allen, whose two-level Westfarms presence was rarely caught in photos and also a formidable, long-time rival to G. Fox who also anchored the mall at opening. Interestingly, the exterior entrance to Sage-Allen is now macy*s Men's Store, whose done absolutely nothing to the funky accordion-style, retrograde exterior facade facing New Britain Ave.
You can almost smell the roasted walnuts, wildlife and cavendish from here...

Sadly, Lego hasn't come out with one of these guys yet. I made this in part because of this, but also because they are my younger sister's favorite droids (she calls them "can droids") :P I think she thinks they're cute or something. Anyway, What do you think? Improvements?

Pportion of the Kode section of Marlton Crossing Shopping Center with TJ Maxx in October 1986 about the time it was completed. This was completed before the Linpro portion.

A mid-2000's Circuit City bag I found one day digging through some old stuff in my house. Apparently, someone wants to revive Circuit City, which you can read about in this article. The entire venture they describe in the article doesn't sound too promising or successful should this unlikely plan go through, but the article is still an interesting read as it explains the history and fall of Circuit City in it as well.
Anyway, that wraps up bag day. I have a new store tour laid out to begin this Saturday...
