Dead Malls Season 5 Episode 9 - Fashion Square Mall (MI)

Built in and opened in 1972, Fashion Square Mall was the first of the regional malls in the region. There was another mall in Saginaw, anchored by a Kmart, however that was hardly a modern mall and would pretty quickly be killed off by the shiny new Fashion Square. Fashion Square upon opening was THE place to be for YEARS in the entire region. Anchored by Sears on the north end, and JCPenney on the south, Hudson’s would come just a few years later to complete the layout. As the years went on a good cycle of tenants would come and go. Modernizations would occur and renovations would take place. The mall would ultimately see its final makeover happen in 2001. Ushering in a new era for Fashion Square. At this point, the final of the 3 Tri City Malls would be open. Fashion Square now sat with its sisters, Midland Mall, and Bay City Town Center. But there was a problem looming, an oversaturation of retail, high rent, low foot traffic. A recession.. And.. the mall would begin to die.. Through the late 2000s and 2010s the mall would loose dozens of stores. But it was Sears closing that would ultimately begin the death spiral. Starting with the north end and food court. While I did visit just before opening, you can still see the glaring emptiness of stores. For example the JCPenney end isn’t doing too bad, but the ENTIRE entrance wing composing of about 20 stores sits 100% vacant. Which is something that still haunts my dreams, how does that happen?? After my visit the mall would be purchased by Great Neck based Kohan for 10 million dollars. Perhaps the final nail in the coffin.. So what does the future hold for the mall? Join me today as we explore and tell the story of Fashion Square, and maybe, even uncover the truth..
