Crossroads Mall

A Kalamazoo area brother and sister combo has LIT UP my morning after I found a video of the two singing a track off of the A Star Is Born soundtrack.

You can now pay $20 to shoot a nerf basketball into a small nerf basketball rim for a chance to win a free pair of brand-new shoes.

That's right, just recently Icarus Grilled Chicken has gotten its spot back in the Crossroads Mall food court.

Why does the Crossroads Mall currently look like the face of the moon?

What many people may not know about the Kalamazoo/Portage area is the fact that we were on our way to becoming the Mall capital of Michigan. During the 80’s Kalamazoo had a minimum of 4 malls. Today, there is only one. Is the Crossroads Mall going to be the exception, or will it too join these abandoned and demolished malls of Kalamazoo’s past?

While the day and age of buying almost everything online was yet to come, Crossroads Mall gave people from the surrounding townships a place to shop and entertain. Recently, the Mall has been repurchased by a company based in New York, which leaves me with the question of: What will happen to the Crossroads Mall?

An upcoming job fair is being held by Crossroads Mall with the hopes of filling 150 full-time, part-time, and seasonal positions.

The term "troubled retailer" seems redundant. With exception of a few like Target, and any online store, it seems like all retailers are to some degree troubled.

You also have the option of having a live stream with a Black Santa and Mrs. Claus as well, while also providing services to children of special needs or in need of sign language

So many things are different this year, and in many cases, you don't realize you miss them until some yayhoo like me points it out to you. August is normally about the time when we get county fairs. The most famous one around these parts is the Allegan County Fair, which, along with all the others, is a casualty of the Covid pandemic.
