WillowBend56 Posted September 30, 2008 Share Posted September 30, 2008 Is Nieman-Marcus the only original store left since the 1965 opening of the mall?Long gone are Titche's, J.C. Penney's, Woolworths, Melody Shop, Doubleday Books, Cullen-Boren (sp?), and a host of others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark F. Barnes Posted September 30, 2008 Share Posted September 30, 2008 I don't know about that, I did meet Mickey Mantle walking through North Park Mall one day. He was just walking along and nobobdy knew who he was. I just thought it amazed me. Is Lord and Taylor still there, I think they were there from the begining?

I suspect that you are correct believing Neiman's to be the only original tenant left. All of the anchors have moved on (or changed names) and the smaller stores have changed a lot even in the last few years (let alone since the original opening).NorthPark management would probably love to hear about your interest in their history and could give you a definitive answer. Let us know if you learn anything! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WillowBend56 Posted October 2, 2008 Author Share Posted October 2, 2008 El Fenix restaurant (near the old J. C. Penney's location) was a long-time tenant. They're gone now.Lord & Taylor was not an original store there. It occupied an expansion of the original mall.James K. Wilson (men's clothier) was another original tenant ---now gone. Even Orange Julius.There was a TV studio (Channel 8?) in North Park at the start that broadcast local shows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
