Here's a former, age-old former Caldor in Manchester, CT on the Tolland Turnpike. You can tell it was one because of the brick pillars on each side of entrance way.

It's had a long rebranded recent history; became Ames (as we all know), then an "Outlet Marketplace" now something called a "VF Outlet" which stands for Vanity Fair Outlet. I remember peeking inside when it was vacant as an Ames.

Former Caldor, then Ames, then Outlet Marketplace in Manchester, CT. Former windows have since been boarded and sealed up.

Here's a 1990's Caldor label scar at the former location at the Hawley Lane Mall in Trumbull, CT. There was a Caldor here from 1971 to 1999. Read more about the mall here: http://thecaldorrainbow.blogspot.com/2007_01_16_archive.html

An eclair if you can guess what it's become today...

Cool pic...I forgot what the "Kiddie City" logo used to look like, seeing how I think they closed around 92 or 93.

The former Caldor at the former Penn Can Mall in Cicero, NY. It's apart of what's called "Driver's Village" as some may know. It was a strange experience... it's like a converted (literal) auto mall.

[XISMZERO]

The old Caldor "Welcome" signs were still there but I kind of chickened out and didn't shoot the pictures (shame on me). Luckilly another member here did so congrats to he. The interior is completely drywalled over with cars.

Here's what it looked like in 2001, when Roger Burdick(Drivers Village owner) first bought the mall. Thanks to my friend Pete of deadmalls.com for taking this.

My mom bought some stuff at a yard sale today and the people put her stuff in a grey Caldor bag. :-)

The former Caldor in Greenwich was two-floors and is actually in a smaller neighboring town, Riverside. SiteRide also leads one to believe it's been subdivided into a World's Gym and Walgreens.

The former Caldor in Stamford, a town over, was also two-levels! It's now a Burlington Coat Factory.

Here's what it looked like when it was Caldor (http://siteride.com/srpl/p_snapshot.pl?lm=listing&resbox=1184128697&subNum=10209001411) As you can see, BCF made some huge improvements...

I miss Caldor, the one in Warwick RI was 2 floors with and elevator and an escalator. it was so dead upstairs, they put registers in upstairs. then stopped using them and then business increased and then they started using them again. Now Old Navy is in Caldor's old spot.it has been there for quite some time, but Old Navy is one floor... what ever happened to the upper floor of the store.
