This is a picture of Plymouth Meeting in the late 1970's. Pretty much everything you see in this pic was taken away in 2000 when the mall was remodeled EXCEPT the fountain which was just retiled and is now dark blue. I hope they regret taking down the clock. :flaming:

Heres what the fountain looks like today.

This is the food court. It was originally the movie theater, but it moved to a big location in the parking lot.

This is the little mini golf course in the middle of the mall. It opened in the 70s along with the mall and closed in the early 90s but reopened in 2002.

what stores ancore this mall?

[MikeRa]

Plymouth Meeting Mall opened with these two anchors:

Strawbridge & Clothier
Lit Brothers

Hess's replaced Lit's in 1977, when the entire Lit Brothers chain went under.  Hess's itself was replaced by Boscov's in 1996 when the Hess's chain went under.

The AMC Plymouth Cinema 12 opened in 1998 as General Cinema Plymouth Cinema 12, a good 6 years after General Cinema Plymouth Meeting Mall Twin (opened as Cinema Plymouth Meeting Mall) closed.

I almost went there when I was in Pennsylvania 3 weeks ago.  I didn't have my GPS plugged in and by time I saw the Plymouth Meeting Exit off of The SureKill Expressway, it was too late.
