I remember going Christmas shopping there in the late 60's early 70's. I don't remember when they actually closed it in to make the mall. Seems to me when Century III opened up and the steel industry slowed down it hit Eastland hard. I still enjoyed the flea market and Beer World.
Eastland Mall in North Versailles (Pittsburgh area), PA, circa 1963, its first holiday season. Gimbels closed along with the rest of the chain in 1986, and the mall was eventually torn down some twenty years later. Duquesne Light Company photo. Photo courtesy of Pleasant Family Shopping on Facebook
