I guess it is time for an updated review for the Logan Valley Mall. For the south central…read morePennsylvania area this has been the prominent mall. It had fought off a lot of what was effecting malls at the time. But that seems to be catching up to LVM. See all that LVM had staved off but as of recent it is not immune to it all. They lost Sears as an anchor, which was no surprise as they are all out of everywhere you go. They have also, as of recent, lost the movie theater, which that means two anchor spots are now gone in this once thriving mall. That is not fairing well with the rest of the mall. Stores have been vacating for a while and there are not many businesses clamoring to fill those vacated spots. As of recent there are stores that are vacating for freestanding buildings or strip malls that are just outside the mall properties. Like Johnstown, what LVM has effected is now coming back to effect the mall. The movie theater across the street closed up shop and now the theater in the mall closed up shop due to a newer theater opening elsewhere. Where that movie theater once was located across the street now is owner of buildings that house businesses once in the mall. It's like going full circle or something. There are corridors in the mall that just feel dead because on one side of the mall there is not a single storefront open, and on the other it is totally occupied by one business. The food court feels empty and on its way to housing one eatery like Johnstown. I hope that Altoona is able to pull in some newer stores soon, or it will end up like Johnstown. The mall in Johnstown is on its last leg, and on the verge of being a dead mall.

I love that H&M is expanding further into the state of Pennsylvania. I really appreciate the fact…read morethat they opened a store in Altoona. It is the typical, bright, white setup that a majority of the newer model stores have come to show. Ample sized men's and children's sections which is always nice. Pricing can't be beat for the basics. Employees are upbeat and pleasant. Hopefully with this store opening here that will bring more stores. I'm not saying that this mall is short on stores, but the few empty storefronts that are there will hopefully be full.

I came to this mall the last time i came and was glad to see familiar stores like this one. They had a great selection of clothes, and the store was very well organized.

I am not sure if that is because of the influx of employees due to the holidays approaching, but it made for a pleasant experience in shopping. The thing I like about a Ross is that I always end up with something that I didn't know I had a need for. Then when I get home I question myself as to why I bought it. However, I do end up using the item, months down the road.

Ahhh... Ross. When I was younger, I couldn't tell you the difference between TJ Maxx and Ross,…read moreother than my mom didn't care for Ross. Older and wiser, I understand. Ross is a decent chain of discount stores full of clothing and home decor, although the overall inventory isn't as nice as comparable chains. Sometimes I'll find the same item that I found at TJ for a higher price at Ross, and sometimes I'll find brands I can't find at Marshall's for a super low price at Ross, but it's pretty rare. I have yet to find a Ross that's "better" or "worse" than any other Ross, so if you've been to one, you can come to this one knowing what to expect. The inventory doesn't seem to change very often, so I wouldn't go out of my way to frequent this location.

After discovering bealls while down south it was nice to see them start to venture up this way…read more Although, I don't think we need another discount retailer as that will be all that we will have after a bit. Especially in this area, and maybe even this plaza. This location literally opened up next door to a competitor. In a plaza that has seen a lot of change over the years. I will say this, being next door to a competitor they had the better selection. Not sure whether it was because they recently opened or they just have better selection. Went through the store and browsed a bit. I wasn't in here for anything in particular so I made my way slowly through the aisles. They had items that I wanted, but didn't really need at that time. If I was heading home I would have considered, but I was on my way to a long road trip. The flow of the store was just quicker, everything ran smoothly. I was able I make my way back up front to head out. I will be honest, I did not purchase anything here, but if I am in the area again, I will stop by.

Not sure about prior reviews people gave but I have been to this shop recently. It was clean,…read moresmelled like a normal retail store, well designed (I have worked for major retailers including Disney), had mostly brand new clothing and gorgeous formal gowns for girls. The service was nice. I did notice the super small to max sizes were mostly up to L to XL and there was a ton of variation in selections. I felt like if I shopped here I wouldn't run into 20 other women wearing the same outfit! Which, in a smaller area like this is huge! Only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is that you do need to have coins for parking at the meters which I had no clue about when I went, but that can't be helped and really its super cheap metered parking so no big deal! I will be happy to go back to shop again. I got great deals and I love everything I got there.

Also, perhaps, the word, "Exchange" should be omitted, since the majority of your merchandise is marked new. There does seem to be a misunderstanding of how you define exchange versus a consignment shop. No Sherry, there is no misunderstanding , just a marketing misrepresentation on your part. As an example on your recent post; A purse, perhaps a Chinese-faux manufacturing brand listed for $45.00, does not fall under a ($) one dollar expenditure store for consumer market.

I never understood Claire's. I mean I do, but at the same time I don't. They do have it right…read morewhen they say they are a boutique because every single one of these locations are so small that, in my opinion, if you have more than two people in them you are overcrowded. I'm going to be honest here, I still view Claire's how it was back in the 90s, the place to get your ears pierced and then move on from there. Maybe the reason I never shopped there was because after getting my ears pierced, I obviously did not want the trinket earrings that they sold. As for now, it appears like not much has changed. Same type of fast fashion, throw away merchandise that if you wear the earrings too long your parts of the body you have it in/on will turn green. I'm well aware that they do sell other items besides jewelry and they do seem to be branching out to hair items, phone cases, and some types of makeup. Even though they seem to have thrived in the mall environment in the late 90s, early 2000s, I see them exiting that format soon. Just take a look at your nearby Walmart the next time you stop in. You might just see a Claire's in one of their front spaces.
