- Touring this 70s mall that is hanging on by a thread, buckling floors and cracked walls are commonplace in this building. Overall the mall is pretty dull with very few tenants, but still has some classic aesthetics that make it worth seeing!

This place was awesome in the late 80's - mid 90's..beautiful water-fountain in the center..
Thats so sad i grew up in the mall in the 90s i loved the pretzel store and the pizza store that huge slices i wander what there where called ahhh what good memories 😢😢
I remember all the times I had in this mall when I was younger. Man, did this mall go downhill FAST.
I grew up in Ohio and used to frequent the Steubenville mall. I have a fond memory of watching somebody die in the radio space right next to the entrance. Some dude was freaking out about a girl being dead and called the ambulance. Pretty weird
Thank you for this. I grew up in the area too, and loved seeing this. Still love home, no matter what.
Me to
Oh damn.. rolling into big red territory blasting the hall and Oates! Good choice! 🎉
Your camera work, transitions, and music are great.
Lived off sunset and cunningham for a small while - as "uptown" as one can live (further u get from downtown nicer it is). I have MANY fond memories of this mall as a child, including visiting it to see my cousin (RIP) who worked at the diamond store there. I remember they had an arcade, titled "tilt" i believe? that while subpar to what i had seen growing up in CA was still sufficient enough to grant me a great time. Sadly what was once the city's most notorious landmark (population wise - i am aware of "fort steuben") has been a ghost town for some time now. Living there in 2013 i only ever visited that general mall area for the library and the walmart. I learned how much of an effect the population of a city has on our quality of life first hand by residing in the ville the short time i lived there.
The opening part of the video driving under Stratton power plant I worked there back in the late 90's.
Aw the nostalgia from there
Trust me it’s even worse now it’s just filled with nothing but a few weed stores
In the 90s and up to 2004 this mall still had it going
I see the floor of the mall still sinking! I remember the floor around att had to have multiple cones so people would not trip. I see the post barriers there in the vid.
When the Steel Mills closed, it took a big chunk out of the local economy. I still have hope though, because the Ohio Valley's greatest asset is it's hard working people who can outperform anyone else in this country!
Great video like always John
Good tour. Seems to be a rust belt type city with lots of job and population loss. It seems to reflect in the mall here.
That's exactly what it is.
The only things left in the town are a really nice bridge and a football team that is a very shocking TV movie version of Varsity Blues.
Grew up in Steubenville from 1998 - 2009 till I moved to NYC
Yay was a spencers
I grew up in the area and it's crazy how fast the mall died. One year there were three department stores and most stores inside were occupied. Then all of a sudden Sears announced they were closing, then Macy's almost right after. It went from a decent local place to shop to a ghost town in less than a year. Now the only reason to go shopping in the mall is for Bath and Body or Gamestop. The mall still has a good local restaurant, The Ville, at least!
Who pays to keep the lights on ?
Mall guts looking like the walk to the nasty locker rooms in an old high school… 😂
This is the mall in my town! Myself, my kids and my brother are in this video at the 5:30 mark coming out of JC Penney!
That place by the door is open now amf its a studio
Floor went bye bye in 1999 and carpet was put in in 2002
Macys and JCPenney were the anchors after 2017
They got the carpet put in since 2002
GameStop and American Cookie Company is the only good stuff left
Is long Johns and shoebilee open still
@@kenschreiner9466 no they closed sadly
And don’t forget now they have a “somewhat” good arcade in there!
The Walmart came in 2002
Not worth living there now. Steubenville is a ghost town. Not like the 80s when I grew up there from 16 til I decided to leave for good. My grandmother loved Steubenville Big Red. My school will always be Biloxi.
Nice 👍
Like the Arcade in Cleveland from Ghost town to Grave yard ,Bye Bye American pie 🇺🇲🦅🇺🇲‼️
You spelled "Steuban" wrong dude. It's SteubEn
The sears and JCPenney had new locations by 2002
😎
This video pains me. I grew up going here
Me too! My grandparents and aunt lived here and we went here back in the day. It's ashame how it is today.
My Catholic Diocese is based out of Steubenville, Ohio.
The rite aid shut down In the 90s
Yeah, when I was a kid that's where you would buy snacks to sneak into the theater
Liked
Sears Spencer’s rite aid tobacco land kaufmanns
No more rite aid woolworth and Macys
In 1998 the Sears opened to make way for Walmart and the old JCPenney store got demolished by 2000 and the new Walmart opened 2001 and carpet was added on in 2001 and chi-chis closed 2003 and the woolworth got defunct in 1993
You’re out of touch, you’re out of time!
Macys closed 2015
And they closed the rite aid and a woolworth
Sad but it seems to be the fate of all malls across the country they're dying slowly
Hot Sam’s closed now pretzelmaker then rite aid got shut down the kaufmanns shut down and became Macys in 2006 Sears shut down in 2016 and Macys shut down in 2017 remember woolworth and a water fountain behind kaufmanns Dicks closed May 6 2023 kaufmanns had a tick tock cafe
No Sears
There was a elbys
