How wonderful it was to browse this site and relive some great memories from the 60's and 70's,  I went there as a child and then took my kids there when they were little.  It's sad knowing our mall is gone.

Was at the mall opening day and shopped it till it closed. They had a artist there for the grand opening and i got my picture drawn there. I still have the drawing. I think the artist was Nina Whitfield????? A local artist.Not sure if the name is correct.

Remember coming there in 1967 for first time. We though this was the best thing since sliced bread! Another couple and us brought our young babies there to just walk around and enjoy the indoors! Glad to have found this site, but sorry to see the mall go! :-(

I fondly remember This and That Shop!

My friends and I used to go in their weekly and "get stuff" (for free) then sell it at a different store.  I bet we made easily, over $1,000.

Those were the good ol' days.

Hello Everyone! My Mom was the owner of the antique shop, "This and That Shop" and promoted antique shows at the mall. I remember, as a teenager, working in my Mom's shop and knowing all the back ways in and out of the mall. My friends were so impressed! I miss that mall. What great times, the mid to late 60's, to be a teenager! Only sad note was the loss of our friends in the Vietnam War. It was truly an age of change. We had people from other states come to visit "our" mall. I was saddened by it's slow demise.

I wish Greengate Mall was still open so I could take my kids to see the Christmas displays. They were really beautiful. I miss Greengate so much!
