Eastern Hills Mall - Raw & Real Retail
This is our walkthrough of the Eastern Hills Mall in Clarence, NY from June 23 and 24, 2019. This is a sad dying mall that has a really interesting center corridor that is drastically different than the rest of the mall featuring an almost secret society ritual sort of motif. This mall felt wonderful to walk around.

Here is some info from Wikipedia. I do suggest you also check out eh much more extensive history on the mall hall of fame blog:
Eastern Hills Mall is a shopping mall located 11 miles northeast of Buffalo, New York on the western border of the Town of Clarence in Erie County, New York, United States. The name Eastern Hills refers to the very low hills that contribute to a slightly higher elevation than the bordering areas along the Onondaga Escarpment. It consists of two long wings running north and south and one short wing running east and west, which connects the north-south wings in a double L-shaped formation. A three-screen movie theater showing mainly independent films is also located in the mall, as well as a small New York State Department of Motor Vehicles office. Eastern Hills is considered by many area residents to be a dead mall and is listed on the website Deadmalls.com.
The Eastern Hills Mall was developed by the Edward J. DeBartolo Corporation. The mall was originally to be named Buffalo Mall, but the name was changed to Eastern Hills Mall at the request of the town of Clarence. Fourteen stores opened by November 8, 1971, and the mall was completed by 1972. The original anchors were AM&A's, JCPenney, Sears, Jenss, Woolworth and Hengerer's. Hengerer's became Sibley's in 1981. The mall underwent an extensive overhaul in 1987 that added a food court. Originally the largest mall in the Buffalo, NY area, the mall lost that title to the Walden Galleria in 1989. Sibley's became Kaufmann's in 1990. AM&A's became The Bon-Ton in 1994. By the 1990s the mall was in a state of decline losing many national tenants. In 1997 after ceasing operations, Woolworth closed their store and later that year Jenss closed. In 1998, Burlington Coat Factory moved into the former Jenss location and remained open until 2005. Another renovation to the small east-west center concourse and food court took place in 2005, largely cosmetic in nature. New floor tile was installed in both the center concourse and food court, and imitation fireplaces, small flat screen televisions, and new seating were installed. The longer north-south concourses remained untouched during this second renovation, causing a break in a pink zig-zag floor tile line pattern, which prior to the 2005 renovation could be followed through the entire mall from end-to-end, but now remains only in the north-south concourses, broken by the new tile in the center concourse. In 2006, Federated Department Stores acquired May Company and converted all local Kaufmann's stores to Macy's. By this time, the mall was seeing a minor revival in foot traffic and featured many younger national chains. Many of these storefronts remain empty and only some have been replaced by mom-and-pop stores. Television station WBBZ-TV established its broadcast studios at the mall in 2012.
On January 6, 2016, it was announced that Macy's would be closing as part of a plan to close 36 stores nationwide. The store closed in April 2016. In April 2017, Sears closed their Auto Center. In June 2017, Niagara Emporium opened in the former Macy's space on the first floor, and stating later that they may open on the second floor in the future. On April 18, 2018, it was announced that The Bon-Ton would also be closing as it was going out of business. The store closed on August 29, 2018. On July 27, 2018, it was announced that Raymour & Flanigan would be opening in the former Bon-Ton in 2019. On September 19, 2018, Sears had sold its location in the mall back to the developers. Sears closed in December 2018 after 47 years of operation. As of 2019, JCPenney is the final remaining original mall tenant.
In March 2018, Uniland Development, a local commercial development company, agreed to purchase a stake in the mall's equity, sharing co-ownership with current owners Mountain Development Corporation. Uniland's long-term plans for the mall are to convert some of the mall's space to residential apartments and create a mixed-use development that it dubbed a lifestyle center. The Clarence Town Board approved plans for the lifestyle center in August 2018.
R.I.P. 1971-2018: Haughton Hydraulic Freight Elevator - The Bon-Ton - E. Hills Mall - Clarence, NY
Recorded February 27, 2016
Not sure why they made this serve as the passenger, but it gives me one more easy-access freighter! :)
Sadly, however, this store, along with all other 255 Bon-Ton, Bergner's, Boston Store, Carson's, Elder-Beerman, Herberger's, & Younkers stores around the United States will close in 2018, so this elevator most likely will see its final operations this year.

Senator Simcha Felder Receives NYCF's Courage Award
New Yorkers for Constitutional Freedoms was pleased to present State Senator Simcha Felder (D-Brooklyn) with the organization's 2014 Courage Award for his 2013 vote against Governor Andrew Cuomo's Abortion Expansion Act.
Rev. Jason J. McGuire, NYCF's Executive Director, offered the following remarks:
On the afternoon of Friday, June 20, 2013—the final day of last year's legislative session—the New York State Senate was running behind schedule. Senator Simcha Felder had two choices. Choice no. 1 was to leave Albany to travel home to Brooklyn to spend the Sabbath with his family. Choice no. 2 was to stay in Albany to participate in that day's legislative session and miss the opportunity to travel home before sundown.
For Orthodox Jews like Sen. Felder, Sabbath observance is an integral part of their religious observance. Members of both parties know this. And according to a variety of sources, the June 20 Senate session was purposely delayed by pro-abortion legislators in the hope that Senator Felder would leave Albany before a procedural vote was taken on Governor Andrew Cuomo's Abortion Expansion Act.
Deuteronomy 30:19-20: 'I call heaven and earth to record this day against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing: therefore choose life, that both thou and thy seed may live: That thou mayest love the Lord thy God, and that thou mayest obey his voice, and that thou mayest cleave unto him: for he is thy life, and the length of thy days: that thou mayest dwell in the land which the Lord sware unto thy fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give them.'
On June 20, 2013, Senator Simcha Felder had a choice to make. The Senator chose to stay in Albany until the abortion expansion vote was cast. Senator Felder chose life. As a result of the Senator's choice, Governor Cuomo's abortion expansion act was defeated in a procedural vote by a margin of 31-32. Senator Felder's principled stand saved untold numbers of innocent lives.
We believe that Sen. Felder became a Member of the State Senate 'for such a time as this' (Esther 4:14). New Yorkers for Constitutional Freedoms is deeply thankful for Senator Felder, and today, we honor him with our 2014 Courage Award.

SUMMARY
=======
Rochester () is a city on the southern shore of Lake Ontario in western New York. With a population of 208,046 residents, Rochester is the seat of Monroe County and the third most populous city in New York state, after New York City and Buffalo. The metropolitan area has a population of just over 1 million people. It is about 73 miles (117 km) east of Buffalo and 87 miles (140 km) west of Syracuse.
Rochester was one of America's first boomtowns, initially due to the fertile Genesee River Valley, which gave rise to numerous flour mills, and then as a manufacturing hub. Several of the region's universities (notably the University of Rochester and Rochester Institute of Technology) have renowned research programs. Rochester is the site of many important inventions and innovations in consumer products. The Rochester area has been the birthplace to Kodak, Western Union, French's, Bausch & Lomb, Gleason and Xerox, which conduct extensive research and manufacturing of industrial and consumer products. Until 2010, the Rochester metropolitan area was the second-largest regional economy in New York State, after the New York City metropolitan area. Rochester's GMP has since ranked just below Buffalo, New York, while exceeding it in per-capita income.The 25th edition of the Places Rated Almanac rated Rochester as the most livable city in 2007, among 379 U.S. metropolitan areas. In 2010, Forbes rated Rochester as the third-best place to raise a family in the United States. In 2012, Kiplinger rated Rochester as the fifth-best city in the United States for families, citing low cost of living, top public schools, and a low jobless rate.Rochester is a Globa ...
