Return To The Now Abandoned Moon Township Kmart. This was filmed in mid February but only had the opportunity to upload this video now. I have been near the Kmart in the past couple of weeks and nothing has changed as of yet.

The way you documented this store made me feel like it was a Kmart that I grew up shopping at, and continued to do so into adulthood... despite the fact I’ve never been in that store. Such a wonderful documentation!

@RealKansasMan 6 лет назад

5:05 Gotta love it when some random person comes walking by while you're filming while it looks like you're talking to yourself. I know how that feels as I had that happen to me several times already. It's both uncomfortable and awkward. LOL

@jackson5116 6 лет назад

There was once over 2,000 Kmart stores nationwide. After the next round closes, they'll be less than 400. It's a shame Eddie has been allowed to kill both Kmart and Sears...

@itrack4u 6 лет назад

So, so sad. My local KMART is going out of business also. Thanks for the updates.

@eaglesviper79 6 лет назад

great look and the fallen kmart. enjoyed the look back at previous videos. Keep up the great work

@theappleman258 6 лет назад

I had a lot of good memories at this store. This video makes me really sad

Our old Kmart looked exactly like this building but it had a Michael Crafts on the end which closed around 1999. Then Kmart closed around 2006. Now the whole building is a high school/college prep building but they renovated everything top to bottom updated everything very nicely with new paint, a lot more open windows/glass in the front, new open ceilings with all new lighting. Very impressive and other open Kmart's should follow that design. What would you turn your abandon Kmart into?

@ThresholdDreamer111 6 лет назад

Good morning, Wallie! Good to see the place again. Can't wait to see it in person in just a few short days. I'll be messaging you in the next day or so to chat about meeting times/places, etc. Starting to firm up plans now that it's getting so close! This is really exciting :)

@BrandsRUs 6 лет назад

At 10:45 is that an old style Kmart labelscar behind the first Craftsman scar? It looks like the old styled 'K' is quite visible there

@WallieB26 6 лет назад

BrandHistoryUSA oh man, you're right! I never noticed that before! That IS the old K logo!

@Tarantulisimo 5 лет назад

Wasn't Craftsman an official K-Mart brand at one point?

@brianb7423 4 года назад

Tarantulisimo I thought that was always Sears until it was sold to Stanley. Kmart just had it because Sears and Kmart merged

i miss this kmart so much, this place is in my home town and have been comming for many years, sad to see it gone.

@Tarantulisimo 5 лет назад

I really really miss the Super-Duper K-Mart that was several hills over on the Robinson/Moon border

@r2gelfand 4 года назад

I grew up in Moon Township. Many memories dating back to 1977. Moved away in 85 and returned in 2005. KMart was still in operation. But as soon as Wally World moved in, we all knew that KMart's days in Moon were numbered. I still miss the old store. It was rarely crowded except around Christmas time, even before Wally World moved in. It would be so cool if Rural King decided to take up residence here!

@news89 6 лет назад

One of the old Super K's was coverted into a Car dealer. Maple Heights, OH store closed in 2003. And Liberty Ford moved into the building the same year.

@Catmannj1 6 лет назад

What a great postscript video to this Kmart. You put a lot of heart into these videos. The best touch was the "memories" video segment with the grainey video compositon, all the fun memories of being there and making me laugh.u Wonder if Fast Eddie painted the graffitti. That is not art, that's garbage. Keep those videos coming, and you stay awesome too bud

@susansparanormalpennsylvan81 2 года назад

flying out from california to look at buying a cosmetic fixer upper house on a budget, was harder than i thought it would be, i flew out here 3 times in 2012 for for about 10 days each, looking for a house, staying down the road from this kmart at la quinta inn on university and going here alot for snacks and drinks, it is sad they closed. I always think about all the people's job affected by this closing workers, truckers, janitors, people that make the stuff

@kcindc5539 3 года назад

Ha! I know the answer. The far left-hand part of the dead K-Mart was a Shop N’ Save (yep!) and was the main grocery store for Moon until the new Kroger was built at the opposite end of the shopping center in 1982 (where that other grocery sits). The arrival of Kroger killed off the Shop N’ Save which soldiered on until about 1985. It was old and cramped by comparison and couldn’t compete with the much larger and better financed Kroger.

@lukeherbert25 6 лет назад

@sskoppolu 3 года назад

look at the front, where it says Kmart real big, lol

@VenerableEvil 6 лет назад

@jtp336 6 лет назад

I'd like to see it become a Lowe's or Home Depot, usually where ever there's a walmart, you can find a home improvement store nearby.

@Nathan-xt6gz 4 года назад

That would be cool, but that K-Mart looks too small to become a Lowe’s or Home Depot. Perhaps it could become a Safeway or Albertsons or a Fred Meyer (Fred Meyer is a Kroger company, I don’t know what it’s called over there)

@Prof_Jeff 2 года назад

@@Nathan-xt6gz Fred Meyer only operates in Idaho, Oregon, Washington, and Alaska. Kroger used to be all over western PA until the early '80s but pulled out. I don't know if they ever will return to that market, but if they do they probably would use the flagship brand and not something the bought up. Albertsons and Safeway only operate under those banners in certain regions, too. Pittsburgh is too far north and east for the Albertson brand. Safeway for the most part only operates west of the Mississippi, except for stores in Virginia, Maryland, Delaware, and Washington, D.C. (I can't explain the Delaware locations; the VA/MD/DC locations for the most part are in the D.C. metropolitan area, which still begs the question of why the isolated pocket in the east?)

@dolphinblue3138 6 лет назад

Pretty awesome that you went back to the now abandoned Moon Township Kmart where you got your Music & Video sign and your mannequin friend but I didn't even know there was a space that used to be a furniture store that Kmart probably used for storage and backup. I watch this video because I love your video on Kmart, Ames, etc. I really hate that graffiti that somebody left after Moon Township Kmart closed, that is disrespectful to the building and urban explorers to see that awful graffiti on Moon Township abandoned Kmart's wall.

@nancydarling4918 6 лет назад

Entertaining video. Thanks.

just FYI if you ever stay in a hotel for more than a week, ask for the weekly rate, you will save about 20%, maybe more

@nicolemacpherson3908 4 года назад

That's so sad when they leave furniture and stuff outside, because it could get donated to the Salvation Army and someone else who's less fortunate could really use it. And the outside of the store is NOT a junkyard!

@alexgaddis23 6 лет назад

Kmart did have a kmart foods concept that was attached to may stores in the 1960s, It was usually was a seperate grocery store branded as kmart, The concept only lasted to the mid 70s and many food stores became other things, Somethimes even kmart expanded into the space. All the kmarts near me have closed sadly and they are slowly being turned into other things.

@Cartwright877 5 лет назад

The Kmart on Route 30 in North Versailles recently started it's store closing sale. The store is scheduled to close on January 31, 2019. I thought that you might like to track the closing process for the North Versailles store as you have done with other locations.

@Tarantulisimo 5 лет назад
