    Mountaineer Mall - It's eerie how quiet it is in here.

    People, seriously, they need to take "mall" off this moniker…read more I have been to Morgantown on a handful of occasions and decided that on this trip I would find a nearby mall and just walk around with no real agenda. So when I did a search on Yelp to find a nearby mall, this was the nearest and I made my way here. One of two things will pop into your mind when you pull in here. 1) This is a big mall. 2) This use to be a big mall. The former will pop in your head if you are an optimist due to the fact that this place is huge in space. Plenty of parking and it just looks gigantic when pulling up here. The latter will pop in your head if you are like me. Why? Because you can tell at one point that the mall suffered some losses in business and they tried to regain momentum and added a Wal-Mart onto the mall. How am I certain of this? Even though the exterior of this place is one solid, sad shade of grey, a Wal-Mart outline is a hard thing to miss. This was my first time visiting here, and most likely my last (I don't see a long-lasting future for this building). Confusion could be a shared experience here for a first timer. When you exit your car you have a feeling that you might actually be at a strip mall as there are storefronts that line the sidewalk. I have been to "malls" like that before, where everything is outside, but not like this. Once you walk inside you are either transported back to a time where time stopped, or you are looking at one big huge time capsule. Instead of boarding up/closing off storefronts here, they basically just left them the way they were. The monotonous paint job continues inside, but this time with a whiter shade of pale. If you want a game to play while walking the dead hallways here, try "What Store Was Here?" Don't let my ramblings discourage you from visiting here, there are actually a few stores on premise. Albeit they are thrift stores and not actually mall stores. And there is one eatery that I can remember. This place is more on the lines of being a big senior center and/or corporate office complex. Seriously, I'm not lying there. One end of this has a Mylan office and a majority of the other end is an offshoot of WVU. In between you have multiple storefronts as the county senior center. So if you want a hot dog, walk indoors to avoid the weather, or just marvel at what once was; this is your spot. Otherwise, go to the real mall in this area.

    If they had a website or active Facebook page explaining what services are inside, they'd go a long…read moreway. Transparency is key... There's little in the way of shopping here. But what they've managed to do with a mall whose tenants deserted them, is really impressive. There's more occupied storefronts than not. Art studio, thrift shop supporting Animal Friends, weekly weight watcher meetings, a great hot dog joint, a custom sign maker, a variety of professional offices, a gym, a boxing studio, and they've even leased anchor space to larger businesses for entire offices. The mall is also very clean and well taken care of. Is it a 'mall' in the traditional sense? Absolutely not. Is it worth walking around just to check out some of these community minded places that have found an affordable, clean, convenient home for their dedicated customers. It's just different. To give 1 star assumes it was their fault all the old stores left. They're making a viable effort to continue existing by reinventing the traditional mall concept.
