Bergen Mall by Alicia

First opened in September 15, 1973, the Bergen Mall was filled with shops that were sure to please the public. It contained a playhouse, where people could catch plays, and a bowling alley. It also had a chapel and a movie theatre where people could see movies. Everything was outside, and it also had a little carnival. It is nice to know that this mall was once ahead of its time.
