Today I explore the rest of the Pizza Hut Plaza, as I call it. A run down section of a shopping center, full of vacancies, including an abandoned Pizza Hut, McDonalds, and Giant Eagle grocery store. Part 1 is linked at the end of this video, where I began exploring the Pizza Hut before my memory card ran out.
This place is only 3 minutes from where I live. It is becoming a really decent plaza with many stores and restaurants opening up. Giant Eagle moved to Washington Square a while back but from what I heard they were renting the space all those years despite moving (they didn't want any competitor to use their old space). Now there is a nice Drug Mart on that space.
That is so weird, where I live you'd never see a closed McDonalds, Pizza hut, etc., not even a single dead mall, it all swarming all the time, and watching such videos makes me feel like I'm stuck here in the past watching videos from the future! Great job man, just found your channel
Just an update: they recently demolished the Pizza Hut building. They also made progress where Giant Eagle used to be & are also rebuilding Speedway to be more modernized with a café. Mcdonalds still stands abandoned though.
9:40 that Giant Eagle front facade is interesting architecture! Fabulous find!
Man, that fade-in at 5:13 is awesome.
lol I know man that one turned out great!
This plaza has so many memories for me!! I grew up right down the street from there (Easton st) where it was once a IGA for many years before giant eagle. The McDonald's was my first job in highschool, 2000-2001
For future reference, most older McDonalds like this still have one identifiable feature. It doesn’t have an M anywhere around it, but just like older Pizza Huts, they have the same feature. It’s the door handles. Those door handles on this McDonald’s is original. Pizza Hut used to have huge metal handles on their doors which had the Pizza Hut logo on it. So anytime you see an abandoned building that has this same design of door handle, it was a McDonald’s. Basically built into the door, not attached to it with hidden screws.
I love seeing abandoned places. Crazy how hustling and busting it prbly was. Good to hear there's a new store
SarahSonatina me to watch wallie b 26 he is good to
There was a Giant Eagle in Weston WV .It closed in 1988 and sat abandoned until Kroger moved in 1994.It shut down 20 years later and has been empty ever since.
So it closed in 2014
The doors on the old Mcdonalds was a dead giveaway to me, even thought they've remolded the inside, those doors always seem to remain, I hate that the dine i Pizza Huts have closed, for the Delivery ones to take their place, I hardly ever order delivery from Pizza Hut cause most times there's more mistakes than the dine-in locations
I spent so many Friday Nights there after a GlenOak game. RIP Pizza Hut! I miss Canton, Keep it up bro.
It looks like a ghost town to me! Makes me think of our own abandoned Pizza Hut. I was shocked when they closed. Makes me sad. I remember having a birthday at our Pizza Hut. Good memories. I like the fact you explore more then one abandoned place in this video.
Thanks for another interesting explore. Yes, the fade in was cool.
Thanks :) funny thing is, I didn't plan for either of them when I was filming, I actually took the photos of both the Pizza Hut and McDs, from Google Earth Street View, and they just happened to be in the perfect position to fade into my video photos :) . You would probably like my video of the abandoned Canton Centre / Mellett Mall on my other channel (Skatemaster Nate), there are a bunch of these fades in that one, of the businesses inside, as well as the outside of the mall.
I love your videos please do more abandoned fast food what was the song when you were filming the Pizza Hut
As others have said they took down the Pizza Hut and expanded the building where Giant Eagle was. There's a Discount Drug Mart there now. There's also 4 restaurants in the plaza and they've updated the exterior of the plaza. Maybe you could come back and do a comparison video, that could be cool!
I really like your videos, you seem to have a lot of knowledge and I enjoy your commentary! Thanks!
Thanks :) I need to get back to it lol, I've been so busy recently that I slacked off on this channel.
That Nate Guy On UA-cam are there any changes to these places yet
I actually have not been back out that way since I filmed this, but I have been told there was a buyer and they will be renovating the entire shopping center. I will get out there and see if I can film it when they do :)
@@ThatNateGuyOnUA-cam what is the music when u filmed the pizza Hut
it was a giant eagle its been closed for a long time at least 15 years if not more I remember when it was an iga as a kid my dad would stop there to get groceries before we would visit my grandparents at cutty's in Hartville and he would always tae me to lunch at the mcdonald's there what memories awesome videos nate all of them
I definitely remember shopping in there back in the 90s, when my parents lived in the area :) .
@@ThatNateGuyOnUA-cam where is this pizza hut plaza located?
There's ones similar to that in Twinsburg ohio and in Streetsboro ohio, at least Giant eagle wise. They both used to be Giant Eagles until they moved location.
That used to be a IGA but giant eagle bought them out and eventually moved down to Washington square. Now there tearing it all out and putting in a pharmacy I believe. CVS maybe. I can’t remember.
Great video I loved seeing the Abandoned Pizza Hut, Abandoned McDonalds and Giant Eagle.
I'm pretty sure that was a Giant Eagle at some point. It looks similar to the one on Raff Rd. but the front part isn't as deep as this one.
Your videos are so freaking awesome you should have more subscribers than a thousand you know just think I'm one of your subscribers
The take the names and logos off because they don't want the company name on closed down buildings.
Very nice video. I love stuff like this keep up the good work! 👍
Urban exploring with Kappy is also a great abandoned house exploring channel
I live in the home area of Eagles and it was huge when they shut down. It is strange looking for an Eagles store. Keep Exploring man.
I think there is an abandoned DQ beside the Culver's in Fairview Heights, IL.
Hey, The Grocery store was an IGA and then was a Giant Eagle that moved to Washington Square in like 2002. The red roof building was a Pizza Hut that closed in December 2016. And the building with the gray roof was a McDonald's that also moved to Washington Square in 2014. Everything there moved to Washington Square. Pizza Hut I believe just opened it Washington Square but I'm not sure. McDonald's closed & moved. the Giant Eagle closed in 2001. And in 2015 Dollar General closed in the plaza and moved across the street.
I wonder why everything went to Washington Square? any idea? I definitely could tell the Pizza Hut had closed recently, the McDonalds I wasnt sure, but it's really cool if you look at it on Google Earth Street View, it is abandoned until you tun down the drive then it is up and running in all it's glory lol. I should have put that in the video :) I couldnt find any photos at allof the GE back when it was functioning.
Uh. I believe everything moved just because business is better over there. Um they have more stores over there. The McDonald's moved because it wasn't busy anymore so they moved and Pizza Hut just randomly closed one day. I'm not sure if the new store is open or not
That Nate Guy On UA-cam I don't have Giant Eagle where I live, instead we got Deirberg's, Schnucks, Shop 'n Save, etc.
That Nate Guy On UA-cam the Pizza Hut closes because all of the pizza huts that you could dine in around her in canton closed because Pizza Hut is doing financially well
That Nate Guy On UA-cam That yellow thing you are talking about is a walk in cooler I know because my cousin use to work there back In the day
Hey Nate, that's awesome your friends with hunter! Tell him, I miss his vids. Not sure what happened to him. Thanks Nate!
You mentioned Randall Park Mall in Ohio, I saw a video by another explorer who went deep into it, even the old original movie theatre, just before they started demolition on the mall. Very Cool. They went in Rolling Acres as well
Hey you do a good job on a closed schools keep it up you're doing a great job hope you make more films love watching them and hearing your laugh you're pretty cool
Shame you couldn't find an unlocked door sometime to get inside for the really cool video shots. Great Job though Nate!
There's a abandoned know mart around here it's by the Dollar general
And yes I slapped your bell, I watch as much as I explore.
I remember when Pizza Hut would make their dough fresh every day
it was undeniable the smell of dough and pizza sauce the air smelled sweet!
Now they use Already made pizza discs that's what they taste like too.
no doubt man, PH used to be SO DAMN GOOD! Now it sucks. I've ordered it several times giving the benefit of the doubt, like oh well it was just a bad pizza THIS time, but it's every time. It's so disappointing.
I love the music and the video I subbed btw:)
My church is in here until June (on the end, behind the bank). The owner told us and the public he is renovating the whole plaza in June, including the Giant Eagle being renovated and converted into a Discount Drug Mart.
oh wow I'll have to come back and get some footage of all the changes :) Thank you
All work should be done in 2 years, but I'm guessing Discount Drug Mart will be open next year.
Update: Conversion and updates have begun, that old entry vestibule and facade of the anchor has been ripped down to brick and the wood canopies of the main plaza are being ripped down. Dojo near the other end was taking down their sign today, we're taking ours down soon too.
Are you a member of the UU and if so, where did they go to if they moved out? I remember when they moved in from the Market Ave building (I used to go to the UU before I got married).
Good god you videos are funny and sweet keep it up nate
Do chapel hill mall near summit mall in Ohio it's a dead mall only a few stores left and abandon anchor stores
YESSSSS my old backyard then I moved to Stark county
Hmm, never saw a giant eagle before. I frequent Ohio as well. Keep up the good work man!
As soon as I saw the interior with the short walls, I knew it was a McDonalds. That looks like the inside of the one on Dueber at W. Tusc.
A question why did they put up a new roof over the old roof on the Abandoned McDonalds?
Really cool to see all these places
At 5:16 McDonalds looks happy full of customers and plants outside looking very nice but at 5:19 it looks old sad deserted abandoned forgotten neglected unloved and overgrown.
The Pizza Hut reminded me of the one in my hometown that became a Long John Silvers/KFC, before it was abandoned after being a couple of illegally ran Mexican restaurants.
Ur intro is soooo awesome
The giant eagle was closed in 2001
McDonalds 2014
Pizza Hut 2016
At 9:58 what was that music.
First Pizza Hut with this roof configuration to have a drive thru how things have changed.
This must be a ghost town, everything is closed down
Where is this?
What happen to the tables at that Pizza Hut
I use to work at that McDonalds.
where is this?
Rest. In. Pizza.
R.I.P. to this specific McDonalds !
is their someone you could call to get in there
4:32, What is that song?
Drove by there a few weeks ago, they're putting a discount drug mart in the old giant eagle.
The McDonalds looked like it had been closed for more than 3 years at the time you recorded it.
It's kinda strange to think that a _McDonald's_ could go out of business. You know, because it's McDonald's.
Can you please film some abandoned stores and restraunts you can actually get into please??!!
lol dude I never have any idea whether I will be able to get in or not. And I do not go in anywhere I do not have permission. I'm not going to jail for B&E.
well i didnt mean it in a way that you would be b&E just naturally if they are unlocked or locked
The McDs and PH are potential spots for Chinese Food. If they revitalize the area maybe something like goes there. You could just call the leasing agent and mention you are looking for retail space for a church or flea market. Then have someone show you the place. Nothing wrong with being a tire kicker.
That's unusual that a McDonald's is abandoned
It's an early 90s Giant Eagle.
The Pizza hut has since been torn down
where do you find your music?
I used to live in Dennison ohio thank you all most had tears thinking how much is gone now
What kind of store was giant eagle ?
Buddy got hungry
Whatever Giant eagle is my favorite abandoned place
my question with all this store closing what going to happened with are kid's. and grandchildren when they get older to work very sad good video keep up the good work
The world is definitely changing. I have kids and a grandbaby myself, and I worry about this as well, but we also have to remember that, to you and I, these things are foreign, but they are growing up in it, and learning it as they go, so what seems difficult to us, is actually much easier for them to cope with because it is their norm. I don't think brick and mortar retail will ever completely cease to exist, but it definitely is going to have to conform as the world changes, in order to survive. Back in the early 90s, a guy I worked with said everything was going to trun into computers and all shopping would be done on computers, etc, and we all were like, this guy's a meatball, but in the end he was right.
What is it going to be
Fyi. The pizza hut and McDonald's are now gone and a drug mart went it where the giant eagle was. It opened recently..
New to the channel brotha thank WALLIEB26 and ACE'S ADVENTURE they sent me ..!! You guy's got a good thing going keep it up✌😁✌
thanks homie dawg!!
That Nate Guy On UA-cam NO PROBLEM FROM THE WEST COAST NEVADA 👍👍
i think that mc donalds was later converted into something else and eventually abandoned
Very truly sad , all the lost jobs 😭
I don't deal with exploring with Hunter
More Kmart videos please do a part 2 about the big Kmart
I liked those hut buildings. They are getting less these days.
McDonalds is notoriously bad for eliminating all traces of eliminating evidence of a failed location. They do not want their reputation tarnished, which is ironic. Since being open tarnishes their reputation worse, lulz.
wow only 3rd time seen an abandoned MCDONALDS? wow!
Drug Mart just opened Monday in Giant Eagle's old spot! Hooray!
Are you expecting food left in there?
Must have been something else after McDonald's, way too much cover up to just be closed down. Big front windows are it look like s Wendy's or Braums. not sure if y'all have Braums. cool video. thanks for sharing
tamara walker:Was a McDonald's is typical when an outlet is closed to eliminate all outward signs.Enables reuse of building to be reused for all sorts of small businesses.Ours was abandoned and torn down and relocated right at busy freeway exit with Truck,Bus & RV parking much bigger than one it replaced & a lot busier now.
Is this off of Easton near glenoak ?
ryan Williamson I’m not exactly sure where Glenoak is, but yes this is right off Easton
where is this at
What is the intro song from?
moony from clerk 2
where is this at?
Oakwood square plaza in Plain Township North of Canton Ohio
So you may have to fly out of your town
never knew pizza huts have drive-thru-s
The New Giant Eagles
Why abandoned?
Patricia Odom not sure if this is really the answer you’re looking for, but a lot of times these businesses don’t actually own the buildings and for the land that they sit on, so the businesses move out to another location, and have a running lease for another five Or 10 years or so, but somehow it is more financially effective to just let it sit there and rot away.
From what I heard (I went to Walsh and heard things about the plaza when GE was opening up there), the old owners didn't want to make repairs on the building when GE was leasing there. When Washington Square offered them the brand new store, they jumped on it full force. I live on the SARTA 103 route that pulls into the plaza and it's been amazing seeing the revitalization going on in it. Everything looks so pretty now and nothing like it did in this video.
I see your phone. That nate guy on youtube
This relocated in 2006
Looks like Larry the Cable Guy
It looks like a Burger King
Seeimg these abanded restraunts makes me want to cry because wow im a mam im a dude and im hungry for some pizza
Man your videos are amazing!! For the record what ever happened to the PT Cruiser you use to drive?
MegaThunder70 thanks 😊 the cruiser crapped out on me not too long ago
That Nate Guy On UA-cam yeah Chrysler’s are not known for their reliability I’m a ford guy myself got a 2011 mustang absolutely love that thing. A lot of these places you visit I’ve never heard since I’m from down south excluding the ones like Kmart and various others
Eagle store look more like a big church
