I'm a huge supported of locally owned businesses. Especially in an area I am familiar with. One…read morethat has a specialized section that focuses on the community heritage. Elevate delivers on that. Johnstown's downtown area is attempting to make a comeback. A very slow, well thought out comeback. Elevate just happens to be one of those well thought out steps taken for the area. It has not only filled a void in the downtown market with offering clothing and items that you would have to travel out of that area for, but they have also filled the void of a long abandoned storefront. And downtown Johnstown has an abundance of abandoned storefronts. We had somehow stumbled upon Elevate through Etsy before realizing that they have a physical store. To find that this company was Johnstown based thrilled me. My sister convinced me that I should take the time to go with her and see what is up with this place. I loved how they used all the space this had to offer. They utilized every little ounce of window space to let you know exactly the mix of items they sale within. The inside is a mis of new and old. You can use that in two ways. New items with a mix of old in a consignment shop type of way. And old brands of the area on items to buy. I was completely enthralled with the t-shirts as I always am and went directly to that rack. They went straight for the old reliables for the area. Glosser Brothers, Skateland, and what I went with, Richland Mall. I absolutely love the shirt and am so happy I have it in my collection. They have a lot to choose from. You will need time to look this place over, which will give you a good reason to be down in the downtown area. Take your time to look over consignment area. Really reasonable prices and they have rack of nothing but children's clothing all for $5 or less (kids rack only). The owners of the store are amazing. They let us know how they came to own the spot and even shown us a picture of the store that they were given long before they took over the spot. Great addition and well overdue for the downtown area.

I would say that this is a nice, new addition to the Ebensburg scene for shopping. The shopping…read morescene isn't an over the top type of thing here, but it compliments the other stores not only in this plaza (as it dwindles), but in Ebensburg as a whole. They started to build this, adding onto the plaza, late last year and was slated to open at the beginning of this year. It finally has opened and I am assuming to some fanfare. As other stores are vacating the plaza due to bankruptcy and the other empty storefronts, this was welcomed as an alternative to what is going away. Like all other Five Belows out there, the offerings are what you would expect. It is great for a last minute stop to pick up items for complimentary gifts and be on your way. Which is how I ended up here. We showed up and ran in real quick. What we didn't know was how close to closing time we were in the store. As we were shopping, and without noticing the hours of operation they had an employee at the door locking and unlocking as customers were finishing up at the registers. I rang up my few items I grabbed, mostly bags and cards, at the self checkout register and made my way to the door. Upon exiting we were thanked for coming and quickly on our way back out the door.

Lord are those photos of this place old. Richland Town Centre replaced the Richland Mall. Once the…read moreGalleria opened up and a majority of the stores vacated for the new and shiny, Richland Mall was doomed. After the mall shuttered, it sat there for a bit before everything on the property had left. Once tore down, the shopping center sprung up. Home to national chain big box stores, it brought business back to this area. Some stores have been retained since the beginning. Others have either went bankrupt and closed or just switched up their names a bit, or downsized their store footprint. Doesn't matter either way, this center, or plaza, has remained busy. What is funny now, the stores that had vacated for the Gallery have started to come back to the old Richland Mall land. Several of the mall stores have now vacated the Galleria for their full circle moment return to this parcel. This place can be busy and you will need to keep your wits about you when you are trying to make your way from store to store. Think strip mall on steroids. Multiple entrances and exits. They seem to be in the midst of revamping some area and possibly adding my store in the surrounding area.

I love it, I do, I do! Since I have to shop this was so cleverly designed and eye appealing…read more It is a huge square of individual shops, bakeries, eateries, salons, clothing and shoe stores, a pet store, craft stores, plus a 24 hour super Walmart! Parking right in front of each store is a breeze and I love in and out shopping when the need calls for it. I also love the fact that a Five Guys Burger and Fries is amongst this collection of shops. The centre caters to the needs of the local Johnstown folks with stores like Ross, Payless, Bed Bath and Beyond, Famous Footware, TJ Maxx, the Dress Barn, Petco, Dollar Tree ( still have no clue how they make money), Michael's, Fashion Bug and so much more. The Galleria put the Richland Mall out of business and now the Richland Town Centre is just taking some back. One back road will lead you to and from both the mall and the centre, which makes for a sweet shopping and dining out day.

When this place started to pop up in his conversation I had to ask what it was. The best way I can describe this to you is the following: think Amish store, consignment shop, thrift store. You can't necessarily put this place in any given category because it is not completely one particular business. The items they have on their shelves you can tell come from other stores, especially by the branding. There are some really good deals to be found here, or maybe just find a new item you have never seen or heard of before. It is best to come here when you have time to spare because this is not a spot to dash in and grab something. What I found great was that this is taking up two storefronts in this plaza that were formerly empty. I want to say that one of the spaces used to be the post office. It is a welcomed addition to this plaza as they are kind of going under a revitalization of sorts. Other businesses are moving in as well. The consignment portion is pretty mixed. You really need to have time to go through what is offered. But overall, the store has food items, cleaning supplies, toys, small appliances, outdoor furniture, outdoor items, and so much more. Cash is encouraged here, but they do take cards with a surcharge. You will be surprised by the final price once you do pay.

I'm trying to think of a place to compare it to in the area but cannot. I was bored one day and pulled up a map and looked for places I have never been before. That just happened to show me Ken's. I actually never heard of it until I saw the map. Ken's sits in a position that overlooks Route 219 and is about a mile or two from the exit. Not much else up herein terms of shopping beside the thrift store. Parking lot is a bit tricky as it is gravel and not marked in anyway. Once inside you are greeted by several different rooms that are filled with stuff. It definitely covers all departments that you would find at a store. Not as large as you would find in a typical store, but definitely covers a fair share. Like many stores like this, some of the items on the shelf could be questionable. Read that as some packages are damaged, maybe some are near their sell by date. One last thing, go by their Facebook page not their webpage.
