Northbridge Mall (Albert Lea, MN) - 1980s dead mall

When you think about dead malls worth visiting, this belongs on the list! Northbridge Mall screams vintage 1987 with its gaudy mirrored ceilings, lights, and stained carpeting. If passing through southern Minnesota, it's easy to visit, located right off of I-90 and I-35 in Albert Lea. Even though the mall is located on Bridge Ave, I believe its name is meant to complement the slightly older Southbridge Mall mall in Mason City, IA. (If it was named after the street, it would be Eastbridge Mall.) Come learn about this once thriving mall that plays 1970s country music on repeat. Do you like my work?
