I went to that Macy's Furniture Store back in 2011 or 2012 due to its interesting architectural design. It never really had that many customers, then again it's a furniture store. The Main Macy's was a Kaufmann's built in 2005-ish, and the Blue Brick structure was briefly occupied by Macy's before they merged with Kaufmann's. It was previously a Lazarus.
@Alpha Omega I still say this would be wrong. In Waverly, Ohio, there is a 1960s themed diner. It still operates to date and is packed. They don't have any part inside of them that plans to close it.
Used to work in that building when it housed the clearance furniture store & the Columbus District Office. It was Lazarus first, then Lazarus-Macy's, the Macy's. The building is OLD. Wish you could see the bathrooms inside. The offices I worked in were more modern, then you walked through a door and stepped onto the sales floor & it was like you stepped back into the 60's/70's.
Lazarus was the anchor at that mall that became Macy"s. So that may have been Lazarus" furniture store. When I was a student at OSU in the early 90s, Eastland was one of the best malls in the area and Lazarus was an anchor at the mall.
Yeah that store closed last year, in fact my wife and I bought our bed room set there several years ago. They had really nice stuff and it was not too expensive.
Yes. It was Lazarus before Macy's bought them out. This particular furniture store was amazing. I purchased my parents a member of Tiffany lamps from here. My sister and I even went through the Macy's drivers Ed classes. They had absolutely fantastic clearance items. This was one of many iconic locations in Columbus. It has been closed for a year to date. Thr Eastland Mall across the way is another iconic location. Great times....Great memories 💯
Helicopter is cops, Columbus runs a lot of birds. The store was Lazarus furniture before Macy's (purchased Lazarus). Macy's/Lazarus was an anchor store in the Eastland Mall. Columbus had 4 big malls in 80's - 90's Northland, Eastland, Westland and Southland.
Definitely love the architecture in this one, definitely can see a little bit of the Lazarus label scar very cool find wallie. Naming the potholes now lol 😆. Have a good day
It sounds like that helicopter circling they were looking for a suspect because look at all of the sirens that was going on pretty wild that is a very interesting looking building to ...love your videos..Wow I love the chain on the door that was priceless I think one reason I love your videos so much hon is your sense of humor you make it more than just about looking at a building and that’s what sets you apart from the others and I loved your naming of the potholes that was great
Back in 2017 I visited Eastland and saw this place. The Macy's at Eastland was already closed, so I think I just assumed their Furniture Clearance store would therefore be closed as well. Guess I was wrong!
That is a really cool old 60s store I love that architecture very cool looking been kind of cool if you got into the store but that's okay you just tell this place screams the 60s
I wonder if this was a grocery store to start with, before Macy’s; out here in CO where I am there’s a building that is similar to this-once was a Safeway, then a furniture store, then a business-equipment place until about 18-24 months ago, then about six months ago it opened as some kind of either building-supply place or such.
There is an empty toys r us about 1 mile north of there and an old mill with a bunch of train tracks. South from that Macy’s location is the old Kmart warehouse they are refurbishing now. The mall had Sears, jc penny and a Macy’s. They furniture store Macy’s and Macy’s in the mall were both open at the same time, Macy’s in the mall closed 4 to 5 years ago but thee furniture store was open till first lockdowns started.
There's so much on Hamilton there. The old Kohl's, Staples, etc. The Saraga International Market that never opened. Front Room. Hechingers. And on and on. What about Sofa Express down past 33?
@@elliotfineberg9503 oh yea that sofa express went out bout 4 years ago and sat empty for a while then CWI Gifts came in and fixed it all up. They built 2 massive warehouses behind the old Kmart DC another 2 massive warehouses between s Hamilton and gender road. And that old golf driving range by 33 is now got a moo,moo car wash an Aldi and huge apartment complex!
Hey as long as you have fun naming the potholes Wally that's all that matters and it's also funny to watch and thank you for that information on what they would do to your car
Hey again wallie other ideas I have for this place are a laundry mat or a roller skating rink with snack bar and a mini arcade or a workout gym hope y'all love my way cool ideas
Wallie, I got some stuff puffed marshmallows today at Walmart. Oh my god so good! I got a whole pound of chicken too ranch style! 😋 and watermelon Mountain Dew!
@@OnyxDash I think there’s a store in Pittsburgh at the Ross Park Mall. It’s not in the actual mall, but it’s in a building across the parking lot. 🙃🙃.

That furniture store is really big! The aesthetics are really cool! What a great find! Thanks Wallie! Have a KMartlicious!
This place would make a cool restaurant. Would make a cool 60's themed restaurant.
@Alpha Omega For the aesthetics. Doesn't matter about people being teens from back then. Matters about if the food is good or not.
@Alpha Omega I still say this would be wrong. In Waverly, Ohio, there is a 1960s themed diner. It still operates to date and is packed. They don't have any part inside of them that plans to close it.
Yes, awesome find. Thank you for finding it. Those lamp posts are my favorite

That parking lot reminds me of the Sky City store I used to work at back in the day.
It was a great store. It’s a cool building, originally a Lazarus. Wonder how long it will stand. Your videos are recording history. Love it! Thanks
I remember when that was a Lazarus furniture clearance stote
Very cool retro building and the alarm tape around the windows
good looking building ....that parking lot looks a lot like most roads in Pennsylvania

Shocking for Lazarus. And I done my research on the recently gone Macy's in stow. Was a O'Neil's at one time. So yeah shocking.

You can never get a pizza, now you can't get a sofa. You discovered where Optimus Prime's trailer goes!
Awesome video man
Thanks for sharing this one Wallie This is for sure a different macy`s then other building i been too.

WallieB26, what an awesome and cool abandoned Macy's furniture store! Really loved and enjoyed it!
I'm glad u posted this so I didn't drive over there. I've bought a bunch of furniture there. Good prices.
Wallie -- that was a full-line Lazarus Furniture Gallery which was the companion of the full-line Lazarus store across the road at Eastland.
Cool..Never got to go there or go inside of of it.
Good vidow clip Wallie.
Just found out kmarts are still open in the Florida keys! At one non closing right now in key west!
There is an empty toys r us about 1 mile north of there and an old mill with a bunch of train tracks. South from that Macy’s location is the old Kmart warehouse they are refurbishing now.

Hey as long as you have fun naming the potholes Wally that's all that matters and it's also funny to watch and thank you for that information on what they would do to your car
Was originally called "Lazarus Home Store", then Lazarus Furniture then Macy's Furniture Clearance.
Back in the day it was the Lazarus furniture home store.
Wally! Love the sunglasses your rocking them lemme know you come to Alabama I’ll show you several abandoned places!! You rock Wally
Good segment Wallie
Hey again wallie other ideas I have for this place are a laundry mat or a roller skating rink with snack bar and a mini arcade or a workout gym hope y'all love my way cool ideas
There's actually a roller skating rink right down Refugee Rd from here.
Hey WallieB26 nice work on the video
Wallie, I got some stuff puffed marshmallows today at Walmart. Oh my god so good! I got a whole pound of chicken too ranch style! 😋 and watermelon Mountain Dew!
Like those old buildings you don't see character that much in buildings anymore the all shoebox shape now
Interesting Macy's building I've never seen one like that I don't live in Columbus Ohio but I haven't been in a Macy's store for a while
Yeah since I could remember that’s been Macy’s furniture only. The mall across the street had the clothes and all. I live 15 minutes or so away.
Like you always say WallieB26 if it's meant to be it's meant to be and you were meant to find and explore this place
Can't even get a new mattress and new chair. Coming soon Wallie's Furniture and Restaurant. Haha 😄 Pothole patrol with Wallie.
What’s Macy’s Furniture clearance? Sounds cool!
Macy's Furniture Clearance was a clearance version of their Furniture Galleries. I believe this was one of their only clearance centers.
@@OnyxDash I think there’s a store in Pittsburgh at the Ross Park Mall. It’s not in the actual mall, but it’s in a building across the parking lot. 🙃🙃.
Lazarus/macy's furniture clearance has been closed a year and did not finish the liquidation of the store thanks to covid-19 pandemic.
That possibly could have been Joseph Horne’s which was bought out by Lazarus
This place was originally a Lazarus Furniture place based off of Flickr.
I have the 40 inch version of that Vizeo 4k as my Desktops Monitor for editing my videos.
That was a heilig meyers store before
Building looks kinda like an old school montgomery wards department store from the late 60's early 70"s
Wow I had no idea that there was partnership nice
Good video keep up the good content :) wallie,
This was the Lazarus headquarters!
Helicopters are annoying. That helicopter was annoying Wallie.
Faded out stop sign? I vote not. 😚
nice
I could not help but laugh when you name the pot hole
Looks like something right out of the 1970s or 80s, in my opinion.
Building definitely was something else before it was a Macy's
Hey wallie wouldn't this be a way cool place for an indoor flea market or junk store or a thrift store anyone else agree click like and leave a comment below thanks love all your videos and love y'all lots like family and may God bless y'all always and forever and always keep y'all extra safe and healthy these days hope to hear back from you guys soon
That building could be used for the homeless in the area.
Front exterior looks like Kraynak’s
This may of been a shillitos at one point since Lazarus bought shillitos then macys bought Lazarus
That be one big Ollie's be cool or dollar tree
I could actually make out where it said “Lazarus” at 9:50
I came just because you're in Columbus, OH. My Blood contains a LOT of OHIO... O-H!!!
I-O
the outside has the vibes of an elementary school :P
That helicopter is probably a news helicopter
the potholes in the parking lot look big enough to swallow the Z
Maybe it was a different place , before Macy’s furniture store came in
But that parking lot needs help real bad!
Helicopters and police? Welcome to the east side of Columbus.
it looks like old grocery store
This one gave off a school vide. Maybe someone could repurpose it as a school.
And sadly there are probably a LOT of abandoned businesses in Ohio
That comment at 11:34 Wallie, Did you just come out? Completely straight guys don't say things like that. lol
