On The End of the 00s: Chains of Fools, by Maura K. Johnston
It's remarkable to me how quickly brand new malls become Sad Mall these days. (Or I'm getting old and actually remember too much.)
City Center in Columbus had Marshall Field's, Brooks Brothers, Henri Bendel, Laura Ashley (God, remember the floral prints?) and it was connected to the Lazarus flagship department store.
It opened in 1988, became a Sad Mall in the late nineties, and now it's torn down.

Our Chess King was a Merry Go Round. Or maybe we had both? I don't remember. Both gone now.
