We also use to have serious dance battles right there. It's crazy how different it all looks now. Glad it's still Eastridge Mall though. 😎Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16787705572925726582noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19322750.post-1159208117739493572006-09-25T11:15:00.000-07:002006-09-25T11:15:00.000-07:00Funmy you should mention Southland.

You could tell they were built about the same time.<BR/>ScottScott Parsonshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10967375949115515071noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19322750.post-1159126341268192182006-09-24T12:32:00.000-07:002006-09-24T12:32:00.000-07:00I remember that this Liberty House was very simila...I remember that this Liberty House was very similar to the one built at Southland. They both had an escalator atrium which featured glass "elevator" clothing displays. The elevators continuously traveled up and down cables. I think there were four of them. It was a kind of a bizarre display but always cool to look at for young kids boored with shopping.<BR/><BR/>This picture features many of the characteristics of Taubman malls that made them so unique from other developers, (and so much the same with each other): the angular shape of the soffits, the sloped curbs, sunken seating pits, modern art sculptures, and cool floor standing light fixtures. The Eastridge fixtures were chrome tubes with small lights lined up on one side of them.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19322750.post-1148792657506488802006-05-27T22:04:00.000-07:002006-05-27T22:04:00.000-07:00That has to be the first time I ever saw a Liberty...That has to be the first time I ever saw a Liberty House mall entrance, and the Joseph Magnin is a definate bonus.
