Interesting video starting at about 1:52 (until about 8:00) about the 1955 grand opening of Great Western Shopping Center in Columbus, Ohio and its featured attraction, a replica of the "Seven Wonders of the World." Film and video from the developer's archives.

Default Great Western Shopping Center

Thank you so much for the trip down memory lane. My parents took us there many times. My favorite store was Icleys..Ice Cream. They had this swirled rainbow ice cream, I was in love. Additionally remember eye shopping in JC Penneys when crinolines where in fashion to wear under your skirts. They had these different colored ones I wanted so much, think my mom said no. Also at Christmas think we used to purchase our tree's there...anyone, memories I cherrish. Thank you..
