The Century III Mall & Why This Is Important 

OMG Jonas you friggin crack me up so hard!!!! This is the greatest video ever!!

Subscribed. Hope you upload more stuff. I watch dead mall videos, but your take on it is so spot on as far as me. Whenever we traveled the mall was always a stop. As a kid it was a toy or sports cards, as a teen it was music or girls, it was an adventure.

What a great video to give tribute to Century 3. Love Wallie, Nate and rest of the gang goofing off. The music is such a nice touch.

I wish I could like this video 100x!

Lol Wallie is in everyone's videos now. I missed this channel, you have such a unique style. Never stop!

opened with SEARS, MONTGOMERY WARDS, GIMBELS, KAUFFMANNS, AND J.C. PENNY. also,, MW building had a LAZARUS anchor.

That was a great video! I loved your voice over. I agree with all the points you touched on.

I never comment on videos - bravo guys. This was once a very special place to many many people.

This was an excellent video! I like the way you express your thoughts about not only this mall, but ultimately the types of things this mall represents. Just because a thing or concept is an old or outdated idea doesn't make it something to just throw away, rather we should cherish these formative places and experiences that make us all who we are. Much respect!

Even when malls are busy there's only a couple times a year a large amount of people shop.

God, your videos have such a charm to them. oof I’m not sure why, but they can get me a bit emotional...

I didn't know quite how badly I wanted this video until it happened lol People ask me why I like dead retail and you were able to put into words what I could not.

Jonas cracks me up soo much

I LOVE THIS VIDEO

1:50 - LOL! Nate and Wallie goofing. I see Richard Wolf as well!

*This was fantastic! Loved it!*

Link to vaporwave track please!

I can tell you working there the reason why the mall went under was bad management staff for the mall they basically took the money and ran Moonbeam bought it and promised a brand new Shopping Center and they did nothing but the same thing it was just a tax write-off I guarantee you if management wasn't as bad as they were for that mall that mall would still be driving like South Hills Village

Great video! Sweet chocolate! Deep stuff Boogaloo.

I remember going to that mall when business was booming. Especially at Christmas it was a magical place.

I fell off a couch and my arm was hurting and I was crying in March 2021

HECK yeah..yall are back!!! 😁💣💥🔥🔥🔥✌😎

I've been fascinated by Century III since I first found out about through Sal's channel which lead me here. I'm flying into Pittsburgh at the end of May on my way to Ohio and I really really hope the mall can hold on a little bit longer until I can see it with my own eyes. I'd love to walk those halls in person.

I really enjoy the stying of your videos.

Century III is my favorite mall. I grew up with it and have quite a few memories there. This video is wonderful. The Midnight (excellent music choice) works great for this. I am happy you didn't need to go into how this mall became the way it is or what could be done. It honestly would of brought the point of your video down. Your reasoning behind why folks visit these near dead retail outlets is dead on. Was nice seeing this after a long day. You got a like and a subscribe. Thanks for the video.

You forgot smoke wizard store and comic book store. Both one of best stores of Pittsburgh that's inside of century 3 mall.

Wage stagflation, and smartphones that what happened. What started the decline....inner city to mall bus service in early 90's brought the savages around on weekend...just a couple incidents kept thousands away

I LOVE CHANNEL BOOGALOO

Nice video it cracked me up

I like 70s music,. film quality/howd you do it?

Nice Muisc in this video what is the music called

keep up the good work Channel Boogaloo Thumps up

Wallie!! Right on!

Wow that was so well said Jonas. Beautiful job! This is what we do and why we love doing so. Bravo 👏❤

Very philosophical for you for making this video. Too bad since the recording of this video; the place is now abandoned -- and the future is STILL unknown for THE PITTSBURGHER MALL. And lately with this pandemic and also the unrest that has seem to have popped-up around this nation (especially over the murder of George Floyd, and also a president that doesn't give a shit about the rest of us -- unless if we're his fuck-buddies and "followers") I don't know what the future of -- not only Century 3 -- but ALSO this whole nation holds. I guess it probably is a good time to look back at a simpler -- and may I add -- less scary time for ALL OF US.

An interior evening shot! There's almost no video of evening/night time interior where the lighting gets full effect. Thanks.

Why does something like this matter? Why is it important? Because malls were part of many peoples childhood. They mean something and tear them down and put up "lifestyle centers" and shop on line naked or in your boxers it's not the same. (FYI I don't know how lifestyle centers can survive in the winter months with cold and wind and snow flying about. The Wierdo would so LOVE going to lifestyle center to shop in the winter. Is your narration off the top of your head or do you prepare something? It's great analogy much like your reflections on your KMart closing. Each one of your dead mall documentarian buds with you at Century III has their own style and theme. But you all share the common purpose of preserving a great retail experiment that failed in some ways, won in others. Keep vidoes like this common. You are like the Justice League of dead mall artists (Aces Adventures is another.) Imagine the great work you can all do. Thanks for this.

Sorry it's be tore down in summer of 2023

Dead malls/department stores good new subject! Like(☆);). I use to ♡♡ the mall, the policy stopping kids from being there without parents &eventually the Internet put the nail in the coffin.

I liked the video but why do people think if you shop online you are lazy? I have two jobs, plus heavily involved in church, have two kids that do activities and live 20 minutes from the nearest mall, Walmart or Target. Am I supposed to spend my free time driving to and from stores? I shop online all the time. How am I lazy?
