NOTA PERSONAL: Tomando en cuenta los problemas del mundo, muchos emigran hacia los EEUU en busqueda de mejores oportunidades. Desgraciadamente, hay ciertos individuos imigrando hacia los EEUU pensando que el dolar crece en los arboles y en cada esquina. Este video es testimonio de que tambien hay lugares pobres en EEUU. Rolling Acres Mall fue un tesoro en la decada de los 1970’s y cayo con el tiempo. Ahora mismo debe ser como las ciudades fantasmas poblando estados como Michigan y Ohio

Rolling Acres Mall. A once beautiful, nationally recognized mall for its design; opened in 1975 which would later come to a sharp decline in 2007 and close indefinitely in 2008.
What once stood as a magnificent piece of architecture, including the center of the structure known as The Court of the Twelve Trees has now been thrown to ruins throughout the past 4 years.
This mall housed stores such as O’neil’s, Pretzel Time, and JCPenny (Which still oddly stands to this day).
Within its walls, it featured unique light structures beyond its also unique decorations and fountain surrounded by large trees and beautiful foliage. A bubble elevator to get shoppers up and down as well as escalators and stairs. The greenhouse-esque skylight covering the entire center brings the outside in, surrounded by 4 corridors which used to house the many shops.
Broken windows, a few trashed shopping carts, piles upon piles of glass, decay, rotted foliage, security office porno magazines (yeah, really), and a destroyed skeleton of what was once a fountain is all that now remains of this structure.
Below I will link 2 videos to give you even more history on this mall, as well as include the Wiki article.
This first video gives you a bit more on the history and some old photos of when it was fresh and new.
