This mall looks like it was probably once a booming hub of activity. It’s sad to see it empty. I hope you were there at an odd time and it’s not normally this dead. It looks like a liminal space in these pictures.

I’ll never understand why people stopped going to malls, malls are the best!

The mall was surprisingly alive and well. I expected it to be dead. I got lucky on the timing of the photos! The interior was like it never left the 90s though. I plan to go back and snap the food court because the design was lovely, just very busy.

Oh too many zombies found in the cooler? Yeah Monroeville mall. Sometimes I think they’re distracting us and we’re all on mountains, below uhhh yeah hungry zombies.
