Abandoned Kmart - Shillington, PA. Back in fall we took a weekend trip out to Harrisburg and Reading, PA. Along our trip we drove by this old Kmart which closed in the fall of 2019 and has been vacant since. Enjoy our look at this store and the rocks that we're decorated all along the side of the garden center.

The rocks at the back are from a local Facebook group Berks County Rocks. Basically people hide these all over for others to find

You’re right.. it’s getting rare to find an abandoned Kmart. Just like finding an Kmart that is open.

Despite what people think, Kmart had many good locations, it's why so many aren't sitting abandoned long- yeah, I know my childhood one in Cahokia still sits empty 27 years later now, but there's a Walmart like a quarter mile away, so nothing is going to want to compete with them (that's what killed that Kmart to begin with!).

Sears/KMart were the titans of retail for the longest time, shame this is no longer the case. I miss the Sears that was at my Pheasant Lane Mall in Nashua, NH. I used to do layaway with them all the time with them and Toys R' Us. Sucks that layaway has gone the way of the dodo. Was the best way to get what you want while affording to pay the bills.

I used to frequent sears at the pheasant lane and Kmart turned sears essentials on the other side of Nashua when I used to live in Merrimack. Now I live in Northern NH and used to shop at a hometown store in Gorham.

This was my Kmart. It definitely went down hill towards the end, but it was still nice to have a place to shop close by. I felt bad for some of the individuals who lost their jobs. Some of them had worked there for as long as I can remember. Love you channel. Down the hill from there next to the Ollies. That was a Two Guys at one time. There was a Rickels hardware and the opposite end there was a Giant grocery store.

Loved the rocks. They were cool. Here in North Texas there was a thing for awhile of painting rocks then playing hide and seek with them. When you'd find one you'd take them somewhere else and post a pick to see who'd find it next. A friend of mine found one and took it to the restaurant we were fixing to eat at.

Electronics was in the front left corner of the store. The interior decor was basically white with some yellow, orange and green randomly on the walls and poles. From what I remember, the garden shop doors were papered over before the store closed. There was never a Kmart Foods here...the supermarket (where Grocery Outlet is now) was originally a Weis Market (both opened in 1974)

Wallie, last time I've read it was 4 in VI, 1 in PR (our Plaza Las Américas mall location is still open with the pharmacy) and the 1 in GU, along with the 8-9 in Mainland US (1 still in the FL Keys). Supposedly (as a news item in November, 2021) those Mainland US locations would close by the end of this month, leaving the 6 Island locations as the only ones open in 2022.

The run-down eyesore across the street from here was a TWO GUYS store originally, which competed with Kmart back in the 70's! They had already been here since 1962 (ironically, the year Kresge launched the first Kmart stores) but Kmart didn't come to this neighborhood until 1974. Most recently, the left third of the former Two Guys was a Giant (which had been a Pathmark in the 80's after Two Guys closed, but was sold to Giant in 1997) but that part of the building has been abandoned since 2005, ever since Giant moved to the former Phar-Mor store in Reading about a mile east of here!

I worked there in 2014 doing loss prevention, lotta people stealing from kmart To your extreme left from the front door was the electronics section, in the front corner. They also sold kitchen appliances, washers and dryers in that area. Caught a kid stealing display headphones there once. Further toward the back on the left side was kitchen wear, etc then outdoors/sporting/bike stuff toward the left back corner (edit: seeing the photos at the end, apparently they must have gotten rid of most of their electronics section because that looks way different). Middle section toward the left was mostly food/pantry items, right side of the store was mostly clothing and shoes.

@jackson5116
@jackson5116 2 года назад
At least the positive is that unless the remaining Kmart's pull a Manhattan, and close without notice, all remaining stores will see Kmart's official 60th anniversary on March 1, 2022 (counting this one as official since it was the first Kmart built from the ground up). Whether or not they're liquidating then is another story.

@tricountyretail992 2 года назад
Even going to an open Kmart is depressing. Other than the smell of flannel and rubber tires and seeing the signage, there isn't much left. Most of the remaining stores have large sections blocked off with very slim choices. Even as recently as early 2020, the liquidating stores then were in far better shape than the open ones now.

That was likely Kmart Food, because they didn't operate Kmart Food, another company did (sometimes even chains like Kroger), but the program used Kmart's name, and lasted into the 80's, and this style is a 70's/80's one, so I don't doubt this was a Kmart Foods.
