Last time I was there was 2017. It went from like two floors to one floor since the time before that.

Good ol lynnhaven mall. I used to hang out there when I was stationed at Oceana 87-88.

Wish it was those days again.

Time flies... used to shop and go to the movies at Lynnhaven Mall nearby our new office.

Loved both malls growing up. So many memories. Those were the hang out spot's in my early childhood into my adolescent yrs...

I remember in 84, I was in high school (Green Run HS) and my mom dropped me off at Lynnhaven mall on a Friday night. I left and walked across the street to a neighborhood where my boyfriend lived. A guy started following me through the neighborhood getting closer and closer, then he was way too close way too fast so I pretended I was at the house I meant to be at and when up to the door to fake knock....and he slowly walked by eyeing me. As he passed the house I booked it across the yard and started running back towards the mall. I looked over my shoulder and he was running after me. I never ran so fast. I made it to the gas station on the corner and crossed the street to the mall and ran through the parking lot to get back in the mall. He just stood there at the street corner by the gas station looking towards the mall parking lot. I went to a pay phone in the mall and called my mom to pick me up. Never told her what happened. I was afraid I'd get in trouble for leaving the mall. I never have been so scared. Lesson learned.

I was 13 and used to play in those fields as a kid. There was nothing on either side but forest. Now it's a Defunct eyesore! Tear it down .

I love these old videos thanks 🙏🏾

I know Chesapeake and Virginia Beach weren't as developed in 1981 as they are now, but I'm baffled at how it took 40 minutes to get to those two malls back then.

I just like the video because of the age. Look at the filter then and now. Cameras have come long long way in design. Just love it! 😁

I worked for Lynnhaven Mall as a janitor. I was there for the big shots grand opening party, black tie and lots of booze in

Miller&Rhoads...Thalhimers !

Mall was so different then

It used to actually look cool

"It takes more than 40 minutes to drive from Greenbrier to Lynnhaven mall" Say what??

was in this mall in 1982 did not know it was brand new built in 1981. if it is out of business they should build condos there.

it was great until amazon and the e-commerce giant entered the doors

Sadly today was the last day it would be open officially

OMG MY BIRTHDAY IS OCTOBER 7 0:56

what was the name of the mall at ocean view avenue and east little creek road? first they had a woolco in 1982 and by 1986 i think it was a bradlees?

It was so pretty omg what happened

Wonder what the mall is like now

It's sad could shop on Sundays, back then. Because of stupid Blue Laws.
