😢 Sigh. My mom loved this mall. We went there so many times I couldn't count. Sometimes just to walk, sometimes to have lunch, often to shop. My brother had designed one of the storefronts, and we always had to walk past it and admire his work. It is sad, but I am happy for all the memories.
I also have fond memories of going to this mall with my mom. My brother and I would run around like animals and play hide and seek in the clothes racks and probably drove her crazy! 😄 TYFW
Love that new wavey music you got going! I've been to most malls in the STL area but I never did go to Chesterfield Mall until about a couple years ago when my nephews wanted me to take them to V-Stock, which I'm glad they got me into. I think its funny that a lot of those "dead mall TH-camrs" all rushed over to Chesterfield in the last two months to get one last shot at filming this. But getting the outside is as good as the inside of the place
You mean "vaporwavey" music? 😁 Yeah, that's a dead mall video staple. I can't agree that just filming the outside is just as good...maybe you're just trying to make me feel better? This was a big childhood mall for me, and I wrestled all year with the compulsion to film it again before it closed this summer and I eventually watched the date go by in a self-made stew of lazy guilt and regret. I should have realized and gone for what appeared to be a great opportunity on the very last day, as I saw in some content from other TH-camrs rather clustered together most of the time, but I was glad to avoid such a socially awkward situation at least. Also, I already did a video of Chesterfield years ago that probably going to be the best dead mall video I ever will , and I went back twice more and haven't published any of that yet even... so I could make a case to not bother filming it for a 4th time. I filmed this when I just so happened to be in the area at the right time. I'm actually working (slowly) on my 1st narrated and proper dead mall video in 4 years about a different mall. All right I gotta get back to it, cheers and thanks for trying to cheer me up about dead mall videos but it's pointless, pointless I tell you! 😜
Man, I was so hoping you’d do this video. Somehow I wish I could tag it to all the KMOV and KSDK videos covering the demo AND the Tesla storage. #tesla #chesterfield
It was actually a pretty spontaneous filming, I found my self nearby so.... I regret not going the last couple days, I debated about it all summer, but I already made my best video about it, and I have a fair bit of unpublished footage already. Still, I think this came out as a nice simple piece on it's own and the sight in the old Dillard's parking lot was an interesting bonus. 😎
@@Dozenspeed Your welcome, as i was trying to find some research for my video, I found this one but it was hard to find, even having to use quotation marks.
Worked there in the mid 90's for 5 years.
What store? Or the mall itself? You can tell us, it can't hurt you any more! 😛
I'm glad that this channel exists and presents its content in the way that it does.
Yes! I dig the vibe and local focus versus so many channels focusing on brands. I really like seeing ordinary places I will never see in life. 🎉🎉🎉
A very appreciated comment, thank you. 🙂

Being from Missouri this makes me so sad 😔

It's to bad to see malls go but, they need the land for 15 min cities!
Well, better than yet another soulless Amazon hub! 😁Thanks for watching
This vid went under the radar
Agreed!
I replied to this a week ago, TH-cam lost my comment. 😠I don't remember what I wrote, sorry. 🥺Thanks for watching! 🙂
