The anchor that was demolished was Kmart, which closed in first big wave of closings in 2002. Kmart had relocated to this mall from another site near or in Brunswick Mall. After Kmart closed it operated as a Steve & Barry’s until they too closed. Belk also was originally in Brunswick Mall and Sears was in a Lanier Plaza off HWY 17. In the 2000s the mall was owned by Colonial Properties and briefly named Colonial Glynn Place Mall.
Doomie thank you so much for this. I was on vacation summer of 2020 in Jekyll Island. Being a Pennsylvanian that heat hits different down there so I went to this mall everyday to walk. Every so often I would like to refresh my memories as traveling for me is damn near impossible but this mall on UA-cam is damn near non existent.
Man Doomie this took me back. I have family in the area and haven't been here since 2007. I remember staying at the Embassy Suites and the theatre right across. There was a Morrison's Cafeteria later changed to Piccadilly. I remember the arcade near the food court and getting a U2 shirt at the JCPenney. Love this place. There was a Kmart nearby and a mini golf course. Oh and a restaurant named Spanky's like the kid from Little Rascals.
Shout out Brunswick Square mall in NJ at the end!
Yaaaaaaasssss!
My childhood mall!
Hot Sam pretzels, Fun N Games arcade, KB Toys, Farrells Ice Cream, York Steakhouse, Roy Roger’s, McCrorys…. All the best!!!
Miss that era!😢
Nice!😊
😳 McCrory's had everything.
I remember going here in 2001 when I was nine years old visiting family that lived in the area. They took my mom and I to this mall and I remember it being very healthy. I particularly remember a Gap store very close to Sears. There was also a large carousel in the courtyard of the newer wing in front of Kmart. Speaking of which, that was also my first time ever seeing a Kmart inside of a mall. Little did I know, that store would close the following year. I've never had the opportunity to visit again in person, but I have kept up with this mall over the years, which seemed to have started a decline around the very end of the 2000s. In more recent years, Aeropostale, Hallmark, Foot Locker, and rue21 are tenants that I personally know have closed. I could make out the former Aero in this video. The former Sears wing is surprisingly still relatively vibrant from this video. American Eagle, Jimmy Jazz, Bath & Body Works, GNC, Claire's, Shoe Dept, and Pop Vault all hover on that end of the mall. This may be the deadest mall in America to have an American Eagle store (which actually did close in 2016 only to reopen around 2020-2021). I had NO idea the Kmart/Steve & Barry's/Cinema wing had been walled off. I was really looking forward to seeing that. I think when Ruby Tuesday closed back in 2020, it left absolutely no reason for that wing to be open anymore. The new cinema never opened into the mall and Embassy Suites doesn't need to.
I grew up in Brunswick, Ga and I’m so glad you highlighted this mall!
So much of my childhood and teenage years was spent in this place!
Awesome😊
Remember Morrisons/Picadilly?
@@sirekumasutra7022 yes!! I still remember the square shaped jello from Piccadilly’s buffet! Lol
Doomie, that comment at the end piqued my attention, as there is ALSO a Brunswick Square Shopping Centre in Saint John, New Brunswick, Canada, on that city's Uptown street of King St. And it's looking a bit stank these days too. XD
''It's looking a bit stank these days too.'' LOL! I can't stop laughing at this.🤣😂
Also, I'm Canadian too.
I first went to this mall in 1993 when I spent the summer in Brunswick. I moved there in 1996 and worked as a salad bar attendant/ bussboy for Ruby Tuesdays. That was located behind the walled off area where the K Mart also used to be. I was 19 and loved working in that mall when it was still busy. I would sit in that food court on my breaks and watch the crowds, especially during the holidays. There was a place that sold the best corn-dogs and a candy place that introduced me to coke bottle gummies. I left there and worked at the outlets in Darien, GA when it first opened. That place makes me sad when I see videos of it. It was packed in the beginning, especially starting on Black Friday, now it sits empty and a shell of what it once was.
Doomie another great blog you & Dan Bell are the best in these videos
Dan Bell is also not bad, but my top three favourites are: Doomie Grunt, Raw and Real Retail and Fleabitten Adventures.
I used to live in Glynn County, and remember there being a Steve and Barry’s, could that be the anchor you couldn’t find a name for?
The teens with the bottle should've been charged with terrorism.
Many a student from the nearby Federal Law Enforcement Training Center ("FLETC" or "Glynco") found escape in the mall over the years. I was a student at FLETC in 1996 and again in 2001 and would go to the movies there. Tens of thousands of FLETC students have probably visited that mall over the years. In 1996, FLETC students could walk out the back gate of FLETC and walk to that mall. That cinema anchor is no longer there and had been replaced with a more modern cinema. I recently visited in April 2023 and noticed the walled-off areas. A hotel desk employee at the Embassy Suites confirmed the hotel used to allow lobby/mall direct access but they walled it off. She confirmed the mall is on its last leg. Embassy used to be a destination hotel for government employees training at FLETC but due to the dead mall, not so much anymore. Really sad as this mall served a lot of those students/Government employees.
That ceiling is filthy!
i grew up going to this mall
I don't like this mall. I think that if they added more neon and a fountain, it would look way better. I also have to say that this mall is not the worst I've ever seen either.😊🤎🖤Thanks for another entertaining Friday Doomie.😊❤
I would shop at this mall
Nice video man!
can you go to the first mall in America and see if its still active
👍👍
Not the worst mall I've seen. The small bits of neon are very nice touches. Why does it not surprise me that they want to redevelop the mall into a residential-centric lifestyle center?
Because the mall itself has been in decline for the past twenty years and it’s not really getting any better
Hi, I’m a UA-cam i’ve made a video about Glynn Pl., Mall Brunswick Georgia this is an amazing mall it is definitely not closing and it’s doing very well in 2019. It was doing terrible. But what do they plan to do with it? I’m so curious because I live in the area and I literally go shopping in this mall every day.
Is it morning or evening?
For this video I ate a few Sour Patch Kids Cherry Blasters, a few Sour Peach Rings candy that I bought from Dollarama and some Pocky Green Tea cream coated biscuit sticks. The Pocky sticks are so damn good. I highly recommend anyone to buy and try them. I think it's so worth it. I also had a small portion of Oasis berry juice.🍒🍓🍒🍒🍒🍵🍵🍑🍑🍑🍑☕I'm such a sweet tooth. 😊😁🙂
1st
