TOWER MALL: PORTSMOUTH, VA

John Barker's Commentary

Posted July 9, 2007 (user submitted)

Home to Bradlees (originally J.M. Fields) and the Montgomery Wards Outlet Center. All the mall occupants had moved out by the time Wards declared bankruptcy in early 2001. The mall was even closed off to mall walkers. Upon Wards vacancy, Tower Mall was demolished to make way for "Victory Crossing", which is a Big Box shopping center with Lowe's, Dollar Tree, Kroger (I believe), Ruby Tuesdays, a video rental place, etc.
