One of the most notable
One of the most notable shopping centers, Crestwood Plaza was the first regional mall in St. Louis, Missouri. For travelers on Route 66, it was a country-wide attraction from its opening in the late 1950s, thru to the 1980s, when the dream began to fall apart. They took every step to keep their relevance, expanding the plaza multiple times, eventually even enclosing the strip into a mega mall, but to no avail. How did this landmark in retail history become no more than a dirt mound? Learn the history of Crestwood Plaza: The Ultra Mall That Had It All.
