It's not a huge outlet, but there were plenty of stores to keep us entertained, and there was hardly anyone there. So it felt like we had the whole mall to ourselves. There's a handful of water fountains and a splash pad, which kept our little kids pretty entertained. There was also plenty of out door seating.

On 3 December 2022, my family, cousins and friends went to Victorian Square for Sparks Hometowne…read moreChristmas Parade. We've occasionally attended over the years. Wow. Victorian Square has changed. It's now all hard-scape which is very hot in Summer and very cold, windy and icy slippery in Winter. It's also now surrounded by some 1,000 units in four-story and ten-story apartment buildings and thousands of square feet of commercial space for office, retail, and restaurant. There was a lot of alcohol and trash. As we were taking all that in, we were approached by Sparks Police, or at least they told us they were Sparks Police, who kicked us out. Their reason. Our group's two dogs who are trained Service Dogs assisting two of us who are disabled. We know our rights so we pointed out Americans With Disabilities Act (ADA) and NRS 426.097 which defines Service Animals as animals that have been trained to do work or perform specific tasks for the benefit of an individual with a disability. One of our group did a google search and pointed out Sparks Municipal Code Section 9.34.110 - This section shall not apply to helping dogs assisting a person with a disability as provided in NRS Chapter 426. NRS 426.068  "Disability" defined.  "Disability" means, with respect to a person: 1.  A physical or mental impairment that substantially limits one or more of the major life activities of the person; 2.  A record of such an impairment; or 3.  Being regarded as having such an impairment. For those who read my reviews here, you know from my previous reviews, one at at https://www.yelp.com/biz/american-humane-association-washington and another at https://www.yelp.com/biz/capriottis-sandwich-shop-reno-4?osq=cappriotii%27s, that DAV (Disabled American Veterans) paid to train my current Service Dog and me. A Service Dog for decades made my life far better because for we disabled Veterans, coming home is only the beginning of another daunting battle; this battle a life-long one to access what able-bodied people access for granted. Wildly inappropriate, we were still kicked out. With the queasy sense of no surprise why Nevada Veterans succumb to suicide at a higher rate than the rest of the nation, we left. On this day in history 7 January 1918 - In Arver v. United States, Supreme Court finds conscription is authorized by Constitution which gives Congress the power "to declare war...to raise and support armies." 1929 - Buck Rogers sci-fi comic strip's first appearance in a newspaper. Rogers first appeared in Philip Francis Nowlan's "Armageddon 2419 A.D." published August 1928 in Amazing Stories. It took only roughly six months after Nowlan's story was published for it to be published in comic strip form, with Nowlan scripting the stories and laying the groundwork for the strip with a simplified version of the same story line except that his hero, Anthony Rogers, was renamed as Buck Rogers. 7 November 1932, Buck Rogers aired as a radio serial on CBS under the title "The World in 2432". The first comic book appearance for Buck Rogers was in the October 1934 issue of Famous Funnies #3. Buck Rogers moved from the pages of books to comics to the silver screen in a 12 episode film serial in 1939, with Rogers being portrayed by actor Buster Crabbe, known previously in his screen role as Flash Gordon. Buck Rogers in the 25th Century was a movie then a tv series from 1979 - 1981. "The Dynamite Entertainment Buck Rogers comic has just the perfect tone: it is fun and kitschy and doesn't take itself too seriously, with cyborg bear-men hunting humans and giant single-celled paramecia invading Earth. The comic's Dr. Huer was an incredibly likable, classy, scatterbrained old chap who stays pleasant even when threatened with danger, and the comic has some powerful moments about a time-lost Buck Rogers who lost everything that ever mattered to him. These moments get all the more poignant because they don't overdo them. Buck Rogers in the 25th Century, the first, best and original science-fiction newspaper strip is back. In September 2008, Hermes Press did a complete reprint of the ground-breaking newspaper strip that entertained Americans hooked on Science-Fiction. Buck Rogers in the 25th Century has it all: space ships, anti-gravity belts, space pirates, invaders from other worlds, nefarious villains, and, of course, heroes! James Cawley's Buck Rogers is a proposed internet video series. In 2009, Cawley and his production company, Retro Film Studios, secured the license to Buck Rogers, which began filming in late 2009, with plans to offer episodes online in 2010. However, as of 2022, no episodes have been produced or released. George Clooney along with producing partner Grant Heslov is set to executive-produce for Legendary a limited TV series about the iconic sci-fi character."

Reno Town Mall is one of those places that feels quietly underrated. The architecture is a solid…read morethrowback, very much old-school Reno, with wide open interior spaces that give it a nostalgic charm you don't see much anymore. It doesn't try to be flashy, and that's part of what makes it cool. One of the best surprises is having the Reno library right inside the mall. It adds a strong community feel and gives the space more purpose than a typical shopping center. You'll see people studying, families stopping in, and locals just passing through, which adds to the character. That said, it really feels like there's an opportunity here. I wish there were more stores and restaurants inside to help bring in more foot traffic and energy. With the architecture and built-in library already in place, a stronger mix of shops and food spots could easily turn this into a much more vibrant destination. It's not about high-end shopping or crowds. It's about atmosphere, history, and potential. If you appreciate classic architecture and unique local spaces, Reno Town Mall is still worth checking out.
