    The Pennrose Mall located in Reidsville, NC is rapidly deteriorating and only has a few active remaining stores inside such as Roses, Belk, a gambling spot and a florist store. This was like being placed in a Time Machine and sent back to the late 80's or 90's. The adjacent building across the street was a former Winn-Dixie grocery store which is also in complete disarray. The property was sold back in 2015, but nothing has been planned to improve the structures or demolish them. The old building located off of highway 29, I think used to be either a Carpet store or a garage/auto store of some sort. I couldn't find much information about this building.

    Thanks for the full walk around of this entire area. A lot of the dead mall channels really miss some gems like this when they only focus on the mall. They do all that traveling, expend time and money, but pass over absolute gems like that China buffet.
    Wallie has filmed that Winn Dixie, but I had no idea how much more there was around this property. It’s amazing!
    I also enjoyed that you took the time to show views into the mall from the outside, rather than just from the inside of the mall. It really gives another great perspective.

      Thanks for the info and feedback as well as the sub! I thought about breaking the locations up into different videos, and just doing this video on Pennrose mall, but with having very little info on the Winn Dixie and the carpet/auto location, I felt like I didn’t have enough for their own segment and just would have rambled on most of the video. Honestly, I didn’t even plan on filming the carpet building location, but on my way to the mall, I passed it and had to film it on the way back out of reidsville.

    It’s hilarious and quite telling how the property manager is using more energy to give you a hard time and enforce his power while the property he manages looks like a an abandoned village from a war zone.
    I assume the company he works for is not giving him the proper resources for staff or property maintenance, but at bare minimum, a power washer and a weed whacker should be in someone’s hands everyday at that dump.
    With Sal and Ace recently putting some update videos on Pennrose out, there’s a new fascination with this place for dead mall community now that Signal Hill is done.

    Pennrose mall is most likely owned by the Malachite Group. If you search their info online, you will see the full portfolio on their site. Their website looks like it’s from the AOL days. Several of the other properties they have on the site are similar in disrepair and rotting away.
    Pennrose is basically Signal Hill 2. Unfortunately Signal Hill is closed. Both of these properties are very similar. Rotting and moldy, most likely unsafe for people to be inside. Also, Signal Hill has their own abandoned Winn Dixie and a massive strip mall (Newtowne Plaza) right next to the mall. Newtowne is full of abandoned and rotting stores… and some that are still open!!! 😮. If you can get over to Statesville, you will definitely have a lot to film, even though the mall is closed.

    Subbed! 🎉
    I know this is your channel and you should definitely do your thing, but these long form videos with several structures would best be broken up into a few videos.
    Very few TH-cam viewers like me and a few others will stay on and watch videos this long.
    That carpet place truly deserved its own video and maybe the buffet also. Most viewers will never stay long enough to see the buffet or carpet place, so they get lost in the pile.
    Just offering some advice, as I also film and post similar content.
    Best to you!

    You'd think some of these property managers would have some respect for those simply trying to explore and document what is becoming the past!
    Unbelievable. I almost want to apply for a security guard position at an abandoned mall just so I could help escort all those who have an interest of documenting all this dying retail!

      I think the property manager at the mall is just embarrassed about the way the mall looks and doesn’t give a crap about the health and well being of the patrons. He was more focused on me filming than anything. If he put more passion into cleaning and upkeep of that place, rather than following me around, then that place may be decent. I don’t have hopes for that place.

    It’s sad how our country is becoming. Photography is not a crime!!

      I may go back here in the near future and do a follow up of what “progress” has been made to the place, if any. The property owner seems like he’s more concerned about the reputation of the mall, rather than the appearance or health conditions the mall go’ers are exposed to.

      ​​@@NerdEpixI'm pretty sure it's legal to film in any public area.
