What was your favorite moment inside of Toys “R” Us?

Our local toys r us was absolutely a daily visit in the 70s. Magical. The smell of CHINE-AHHH plastics and rubber, and colorful paint still brings me the warm fuzzies. Now its an Ollies????? No warm fuzzies. Still the same smells though.

yp you got discord i also do stuff like this

Oh wow... that hurts to see..

Hi my new friend and great video

Been to this Sam’s Club lots of times when I was a kid. I was sad to see it close. Well, I'm over it now and 5 minutes away from that Sam's Club is a Costco. That Costco is where we do our shopping now.

There’s another one near river oaks mall

I was just in there a few months ago. They donated some stuff to my school. It was pretty neat! We explored all 3 floors

I live right by this mall and I'm so sad that it's dead. It is beautiful inside 😢

👣

Where did the elevator belong in that store?

What was your most memorable moment at Sears?

It’s not abandoned, it’s vacant

Man, Circuit City hasn't been around for decades in my area. I remember being 7 or 8 the last time I went into one of those before did a clearance at ours and shut it down.

Very nice looking one. Opened in 2004. Expanded to a supercenter in 2007

bruh hobby lobby moved next door

Does anybody miss Toys “R” Us?

OMG I was just going to go there!!! I drive past and I didn't know they were closing this location!

Looks scary 😨

Nice beautiful big mall

This was closed many years ago. wonder why is still abandoned.

crazy that nothings been done with this building after all this time

Thanks for the outside view

Why not just explore the entire shopping center

Just letting you know it's pronounced New Len-ex instead of New Len-ox.

The government and big tech want us to stay home sit on the couch and order online. The American way I grew up in is fading away for the evil new world order to take hold of this nation.

Stratford Square Mall has now permanently closed after 43 years

You scared me for a second I thought it was about a mall I visited one time in peru

You did a great job filming this mall, Thank you!❤😂

Great video!!! 🤗❤️🤗❤️🤗❤️ I don't remember when I lived in Elgin, Illinois if I ever drove down this this mall to visit it. Since I'm in Rockford, Illinois I couldn't get to see this last days/day of this mall because of car problems and my husband's change of is schedule of him working 4 days of the week from 7:00pm to 7:00am but it's so sad to know another well known mall in my home state of Illinois is closing up just so sad. ☹️☹️☹️

a me piace molto questo genere di video,essendo io italiano queste cose succedono anche nel mio paese ma se guardo su you tube ne trovo molto di più sull'america che è un nazione immensa e molto più grande dell'italia...c'è molta tristezza e desolazione in questi filmati ma ci raccontano la vita passata di come era una volta

Thank you for this final tour before this beautiful mall shuts its doors for good. I’m feeling really sad as you walked through the mall and take shots inside the closed stores. Just sad and even numb. This is such a beautiful mall. The architecture and design are just beautifully done. I hope they don’t demolish some of the building with the beautiful wooden columns, and wood panels on the ceilings. This building once had full of life. I just can’t imagine this building being demolished. I’m just utterly sad. Even though I’m not from the Chicago area. I’m sad about a lot of malls being closed down because of multiple reasons. But the reason that struck me the most is the poor management of the owners. They didn’t do anything to revive this mall. Just sad🙁

Thank you for recording and chronicling the last days of Stratford Square Mall. This was the mall I grew up with and had a ton of great experiences and memories of. It's a shame to see not only this mall, but so many malls not being able to survive and thrive nowadays. I suppose it's all part of the passage of time. I visited on April 15th 2024, the last Sunday before the mall closed it's doors to the public. It was a rush of both nostalgia and melancholy. There was a ton of people also visiting that day and soaking in the last memories of this mall. I went around remembering all what stores used to occupy many of the spots, what the anchor stores used to look like, and how bustling and lively it was on the weekends and close to the holidays. I'm glad someone else is really appreciating Stratford for the wonderful experiences it once held.

I grew up in this mall and haven't been there in years since i moved to Florida.. My Aunt & uncle just called to tell me that they took their final walk through there tonight before its demolished soon. I knew youtube would have at least one urbex video of it. This video is incredible!! thank you for sharing this.

love the vid, but could really go without the background music :p

I remember going there when i was little the parking lot was packed memories

Is that backrooms 😮

Feels like a dream

Hmmmmm but you should go inside record the abandoned places

All of these locations are permanently closed after Bon-Ton’s bankruptcy in 2018.
