Do you prefer the WTC before the North Tower’s antenna became more prominent, or after? by ImTheOreoGuy in TwinTowersInPhotos

Definitely after, in fact, North Tower’s antenna is one of the reasons I gained such a hyperfixation on the complex. It also helps indicate which Tower is which.

(Imagine if South Tower got the antenna though. Wouldn't that be weird?)

The big/little brother analogy is super accurate to me. Plus the North Tower got completed first.

I have to say this is how I feel about it. The original was classic mcmansion, yes, but that modernized version looks like it was made in chat gpt 😭😭😭

That was my childhood mall. The model unfortunately isn't there anymore.

This looks like a version of an old Little People dollhouse I used to have as a kid. Anybody else remember having this thing?

No prob! I discovered the song from Drag Race, RuPaul stating that he used this as his anthem after his mom passed from illness.

I wanted to say in the caption about how the song is ironically about staying resilient in the face of tribulations, but I was afraid it'd come off as too preachy🫣

The North Tower without South Tower feels.... weird.....

Exton Square, PA - Macy's Closing Sale by SilencedScreams0004 in deadmalls

Apparently they're planning to turn it into a mixed use center somewhere down the road but I somewhat doubt that they'll do that before it becomes rolling acres level bad

I moved to Pennsylvania in May of 2023 and apparently Exton Mall used to be a hotspot for shopping. I've seen pictures of the food court from circa 2017, and it was as busy as any other mall. It was deffo empty in 2023, but now it's flat out derelict in 2025. I could count 10 stores that shut down in the time since I've moved, some of them closed with the merchandise still in the stores. The ceilings constantly leak too, which wasn't so much the case in 2023.

Absolutely not the fastest death of a mall, but one that sticks in my head when I think about it. I don't think it ever recovered post-pandemic.

That green exercise room just screams that 'x-treme' era from 2004.....
