Kings Highway Plaza, New Bedford MA, 1983 Click to enlarge. There were a few more stores than this, but these are the ones I remember. Send me a map of your "first mall."
i remember riding my bike on the large banks that were there (would be at the very most bottom of your map)we would carve up them, do a trick and roll back down, or just pump it like a wave all the way to the end. now they have squared them off and done some landscaping. RIP KHB
The place you have labled Osco Drug that you can't remember was "MAMMOTH MART" which was a department store not unlike MARS or KMART. My big memories of THAT store was Led Zepplin's IN THROUGH THE OUT DOOR and Aerosmith's NIGHT IN THE RUTS being on display, and buying magic tricks for a quarter out of the vending machines. Also, if you dig into your head, I think you'll find OSCO was in the next plaza over, after they tore down that factory.
