We're gonna rock down to electric avenue and then we'll take it higher

Gnc is the cockroach of the retail world. it can be the literal Mall apocalypse and they'd still be there selling protein shake.

Sitting so close to that TV, it's no wonder why that lady is wearing glasses!

When I was a kid the mall used to be bigger. In the 90's. It was never a large mall but it got smaller. It was a lot cooler in the late 80's, early 90's and late 90's. It really turned into a sad place. So many child hood memories from that mall and now it's gone.

I think this is the only toys r us I've seen with a mall entrance!

My mom used to love Montgomery Wards. Glen Burnie was the mall where I spent a lot of time as a kid.

Always so nostalgic, and sad. Keep up the great vids guys!

I remember the Montgomery Ward store where I lived years back; it was a standalone store (the local mall had a Sears as an anchor). It was closed when Montgomery Wards went bankrupt and ended up being rebuilt as a medical office complex. Those electronics at the end were a blast from the past; I saw a few things I recognized from real life!

I remember Montgomery Ward use to model for my local store as a kid during there back to school fashion show . we still have are Montgomery Ward building here in my town it is now a church

Office Depot Closed. Ollie’s is now where Toys R US Was.

I have a lot of memories of this mall, mostly concerning trips with my grandmother, who's long since passed. It's sad to see the place gone. The center section has been ripped out, and work continues on the rebuilding.

1:48 because everyone used their working VCR as a drink coaster on an end table back in the day ;-) A cousin-in-law (that should be a thing) worked at this Ward's location as a teen for a few years. Sent him a link and he said he Lhao.

Local guy here. Glen Burnie Mall AKA Centre at Glen Burnie was my childhood mall. At the time my family lived in Baltimore. Glen Burnie was my moms favorite mall.

Now that Toys R Us is gone, this is even more saddening to watch

Power Gamer was one of my favorite stores ever. I loved the staff there and they had all kinds of import games and Pokemon cards. I used to go as recently as 2016 just to chat with the people there. As a kid we used to do field trips and birthday parties at Jeepers, which was like an indoor amusement park.

Hey there Ace. i wanted to compliment your video style. I find it quite interesting to see the contrast presented in dead and dying malls. Specifically, i am glad that you present the video review of these fading commercial centers in a straight forward manner. I hope your channel doesn't go the way Dan Bell has done. No disrespect intended to Dan bell, he and his team can style whatever way they want. I am referring to the way most of their productions endeavor to put a scary, spooky , and gouhly perspective on these places. I like the way your channel just takes us there and with video and narrative, you just give us the situation. Great Chanel. i'm glad to find ya. and again, my comments are not meant as an insult to Dan Bell's cool works. A lot of people really go for that style. I wanted to give this feedback to re-enforce what i like about your video documents. I'll be back. In fact , i never subscribe to anything, but, i think, for your channel i'll make an exception,,, subbed. : )

Great video, I love the tv spot at the end sooo classic.

Went there last week and all that remains is the hallway where Toy R Us used to be which is now an Ollie's. It's now an outdoor strip mall. Anchors are Ollie's, Target, and Burlington Coat Factory.

That driving school used to be a jewelry store. That grey colored siding has been there since I was a kid.

Our Montgomery Wards building is still there - repurposed as an office building. It closed in the late seventies as two new ones as new mall anchors were opening up in the area...

The Ward's training clips at the beginning are GEMS! Thank you for that!

Glen Burnie Mall was pretty cool back in the 70's had a lot of cool stores like Record Bar and Radio Shack

Great job!! I used to work at Montgomery Ward's in the 80's at the long gone & much missed Golden Ring Mall. Though that was my local mall, I had friends in Glen Burnie & I have fond memories of this mall as well. Your video is like a follow up to Dan Bell's & I appreciate this one last look at a place where I had a great time back in the day. You do an amazing job with your vids, glad to be a subscriber. Keep up the great, high quality work--it's very much appreciated.

Montgomery Ward still exists as an online catalog store.

Power Gamer, Toys R us..😢 10:26 Elway

"We're going to rock down to electric avenue." I wonder if they decided to name it that before or after that song was written.

Excellent video. Thanks for uploading. I really like your style. Keep them coming.

Going on two years and they've still neither torn it down, nor turned into a full outdoor mall like it was supposedly supposed to...

oh my gosh i live fairly close to this mall . I remember being in multiple times and was sad when i slowly watched it get emptier and emptier

cool :) The Electric Ave at Montrermry Ward was cool, I remember a lot of these electronics :)

mane dat'z sad all these malls are goin' away! everytime i see these vids, i think of tha 3 dead malls in Houston, Greenspoint Mall, Sharpstown Mall (now called PlazAmerica), and now Northwest Mall in my city of Houston! keep up tha good work! maybe u could make ur way down 2 Houston 2 see 3 dead malls which it's almost unheard of 4 just 1 city :O

This was a popular mall back in the day. It had a lot of really good stores and it was always busy. The arcade was awesome back in the 80's. It's a shame that the mall is closed now. Once they tear it down they are building a new bowling alley,movie theater,and fitness center.

Plenty of memories there in the Power Gamer. One of the best game stores that were in the area.

Montgomery Ward in that Ithaca NY mall was so creepy (last time saw open 1996). I really think the nearest MW, to Rochester, was in the boonies. perhaps Newark (yes there's a Newark in NY!!).

You along with other urbex youtuber's have inspired me to go out and film locations out here in California. They're not that many but it's worth a shot!

Thanks for making this video. I still shopped there from time to time and went to power gamer. I kept meaning to go back but didn't get a chance for a few months then heard they were closed. With this video, I can get to see it one last time.

That was my childhood sitting with Santa going to power gamer and footlocker and famous footwear I miss it 😥 it's not the same anymore but hey😁 I'm 18 now and I also heard they are gonna rebuild it

I didn't know that Montgomery Ward ever had a cafeteria. I bought my Pioneer 5-disc CD changer there, Sega Genesis, Sony Discman, Thunderblade for my Master System.

oh lord @ the store going to Marley Station. They're not doing well either.

How ironic to see Toys 'R Us. Wow, things are changing too quickly!

Montgomery Wards is pretty much defunct. There's sort of a Ward's catalog business still going (it's complicated... the direct sales company that bought the brand name turned around and sold it to a catalog company I've worked for in the past, so you can get a Ward's catalog...but it's not really the same.)

Great Video, I Always like your videos !!

Its aug 2017 and its still hasnt been demoloished or anything

Our dead malls in Kansas City are gone now. They have been torn down now... :(

How do you procure your information ace?

Montgomery Ward seemed like an amazing store! Sad it's no more, except for online

wow those TV's.

Another dead childhood memory. Boy I feel old remembering all the products in the Wards footage.

My Montgomery wards VCR was in this video 😂 I don't know if it still works but still have it

I live in Oklahoma. Where in OK are you gonna go?

Where are you planning to go in Oklahoma?

@2:10 How shit, don't shit that close to the TV!

0:48 lol.

Type A personalities are good for starting a company, but they’re terrible at maintaining a company over the long term. CEOs of companies like Sears and Montgomery Ward were run by type a personalities. Basically believing that they can get by with mostly hype and bravado. But, behind closed doors they lack analytic skills and ignore the sound advice of type B personalities who work for them. They tend to rely too much on marketing and borrow way too much money with their flamboyant and unrealistic thinking without doing the proper cost/benefit analysis. They don’t do customer surveys or research to find out changing customer buying habits and preferences before borrowing big money from banks and spending it on things that they aren’t sure are going to produce results. These are all traits of type A personalities and they bankrupt companies like Sears and Montgomery Ward.

It would be nice if you didn't read off the malls wikipedia page word for word in your intro!!!!!

white marsh mall will eventually meet the same fate!

2nd

I remember going in to that power gamer store, just drove past the old location the other day and looks like the inside of the whole building was gutted
