Schuylkill Mall Center Court (6.22.2017 / 12:27 pm)
Taken at the former Schuylkill Mall (now demolished) in Frackville, Pennsylvania on an iPhone 6 plus.
“I had no prior knowledge of this mall. I discovered it while driving to film the Steamtown Mall in Scranton, Pennsylvania for the Dead Mall Series (2014 - ). Schuylkill Mall had a big sign on the highway so I decided to go have a look. Upon entering I knew I had stumbled upon a very special place. Schuylkill Mall was completely frozen in time. Nothing had changed since its 1980 opening. Terracotta and terrazzo floors, wood paneled abandoned storefronts, fixed multicolored tables outside the vintage pizza restaurant and several working fountains. It was like stepping out of a portal. Once my video and photos of the mall went viral mall management sent a cease and desist letter stating that I had caused damage to the mall’s reputation. Three years later the mall would be a pile of rubble. I hope it wasn’t my fault.”
