La Jolla Village Square in my area used to be an actual indoor mall anchored by May Company & Bullocks Wilshire and opened in 1979. These days you wouldn't even know that LJVS was once a full fledged mall.......
must have been sometime in 1992 when my dad randomly brought me to the mall and got me an NES. My first gaming system and I didn't even ask for it. He created a monster.
During it's first 10 years, it was the thing to see and the place to go. I kept going until around 2010 or so but ever since Westfield bought it things were going downhill. Maintenance was on the cheap. Last year I went back for my first time in a decade and it was like visiting a third world country. So depressing. So many cop cars outside with no crime having yet been committed, just standing around ready to go because it was a Friday night and they needed to be in place for whatever happened. More employees than customers. I can't get over how many big name businesses are not only gone, but replaced by these weird little game kiosks. Shooting games and things like that, like a carnival. I just can't get over how quickly it went from top of the pile to just a pile.
both Escondido village mall and the vineyard mall both closed a few years after north county fair opened. Robinsons and may co both opened a few months before the rest of the mall opened. I was there on both openings. personally Have not been there since the late 90s. great memories. I recall the food court having the hot dog on a stick and boardwalk fries among many others.
Express and north county mall opened on February 17, 1986 express continued on April 23, 2024. February 17, 1986 to April 23, 2024 express at north county mall
I remember when this mall first opened in 1986. It was the most fabulous mall in a long time.

This takes me back to my childhood. I grew up in Escondido.
