Abstract:
In 1975, Charlotte's Eastland Mall was one of the grandest in the state. It was one of the largest enclosed shopping centers; it was the only one with an ice skating rink; and it was the first one to have a food court. Martin presents reasons why the mall has declined over the years.

Abstract:
"This spring the city begins work on a 4.5 acre urban park on the old Eastland Mall site, in one of Charlotte's most diverse areas. the park, designed for the future, will also nod to a once-glorious past." Amid a nationwide boom for shopping malls, planning for the former Eastland Mall began in 1969. Charlotte's first mall, Charlottetowne Mall, opened in 1959, followed by SouthPark in 1970. The two entities eclipsed Charlotte's traditional shopping district on Trade and Tryon Streets. A significant feature of Eastland Mall was its indoor Ice skating rink.
