Shoppingtown store in deWitt (later the Bon Ton) |
Chappells were a department store chain from my area dating back to the late Victorian age that were around for nearly a century, but were bought out by the Bon Ton in 1995, only for that to go under several years ago (I could cover them later on). I'll do some from memory before going to Wikipedia, which is too easy, even though it's rare for them to have a place only known to a smaller region like this as opposed to, say, Belk or Marks and Spencers for that matter. Many included New Domain, a store within a store.
Syracuse (Lyncourt) - Shop City Mall (was partially enclosed in those days); closed 1992, later AJ Wright, CW Price, Fallas, and Thrifty Shopper Outlet. Now Black Friday Deals.
Syracuse (Westvale) - Western Lights Plaza; now Price Chopper (moved over from other side of plaza)
North Syracuse - Northern Lights Plaza, US 11; former flagship, has been various anchors such as Burlington and Media Play. Closed by mid-to-late '80s. Now vacant.
deWitt - Shoppingtown Mall, NY 5; later the Bon-Ton, now vacant and set for demolition to be replaced by District East, pending court action.
Camillus - Camillus Mall; later the Bon-Ton (was last surviving building of old mall when it became Camillus Commons), partially St Josephs Health, otherwise vacant.
Clay - Great Northern Mall, NY 31 & 481; later the Bon-Ton, now vacant
Cicero - Penn-Can Mall; closed after 1988, now Roger Burdicks Drivers Village
Syracuse (downtown) - original store; now Salina Place
Liverpool - Seneca Mall, CR 57; now U-Haul
Watertown - Salmon Run Mall, NY 3; later the Bon-Ton, now vacant
Auburn - Fingerlakes Mall, NY 5 & US 20; moved to Camillus Mall in November 1993; now Bass Pro Shops or vacant (to the right of former kmart/Rex)
Syracuse (north side) - Carousel Center (now Destiny USA); later the Bon-Ton, now vacant
