It’s a dry heat! Good one Paul.

Did you work on the original mall, or on the extension? It is surprising to think how small the original mall was compared to some of the megamalls that I see down here in southern California.

I worked on construction of Vancouver mall when just the walls were up and the roof was going on. Don’t remember the name of the contractor I worked for. I was a plumber, Local #51 Portland. Probably only worked there a couple months and moved on. There was a lot of work back then and always looking for a job out of town and that extra travel pay. Retired now living in rural Arizona. It’s a dry heat…:o)

Just found this page while cruising the web searching on Vancouver, Washington (where I live). And like most of you guys, I was raised up shopping at the mall. A lot of good memories were made there. I think my fondest memories were actually during the early-90s before the mall got revamped. I haven’t been back there since last year (2009), but from what I saw, most of the stores were just junk! How many privately owned-jewelry shop does that mall need? The employees at the stores were so depressed. Someones should tell them to smile a bit more. In addition, most of the “shoppers” I saw were young teenagers window shopping; and this was in an afternoon on a weekday. Should they be in school? The mall is no longer that fun and exciting. The employees and the stores were just boring. The shoppers did not even make the experience worth going, as well. Who wants to clothes shop with loud teenagers hanging around? Not me!

I am hoping the mall get remodeled ASAP. Heck, the best choice should be to bulldoze it down and build another new mall without the Westfield name. One thing I am curious about, why are there so much parking spaces at that mall?

Yeah the Vancouver mall, right now plans are under way to demolish it and build a big movie theater in it’s place.

Vancouver Mall was where Tonya Harding’s truck was stolen in 1997. Does this type of thing happen normally?
