Shops at Waterloo Town Square

David's Tea, Hearts and Flowers and RetroReplay (which is still operating online) are the business mentioned as being closed in the article, for those keeping track.

I mourn this mall's continued demise a little, still. It was practically my second home from like, 1987 until 1994 or thereabouts. I'd love for someone to tear the whole thing down and build a couple of great towers, though I say that with no meaningful understanding of what that would entail.

I spent a lot of time there as a kid, mostly downstairs though. One of the best spots for pool and bowling. I don't think I've been there once since they tore down the original mall.

Yep, Twin City Bowl is where I was most of the time too, most every afternoon after high school except for the period when there was the arcade on the main floor. So much Street Fighter 2.
