CLOSING TIME: Inside Metcalf South Mall For The Last Time

Immerse yourself in the final days of the abandoned Metcalf South Mall in Overland Park, Kansas (a suburb of Kansas City). 4K ultra HD video and sound. These are some of the last images taken of the mall before demolition. If you listen closely, you can still hear the hustle and bustle of shoppers, diners, and the trickle of fountains.

Metcalf South Mall opened in Overland Park, KS at the corner of Metcalf Avenue and 95th Street in 1967 as the first enclosed shopping mall in the Kansas City area. It thrived for decades as the premier indoor shopping destination in the region. By the 1990's, a plethora of other indoor and outdoor shopping centers had sprung up around the area and tenants began to leave Metcalf South. By the mid 2000's, the majority of the facility was empty except for two anchor stores (Sears and Macy's), the small Glenwood Theater, and a handful of small boutique shops scattered throughout the cavernous structure. In the spring of 2014, the original owner / developer of the property MD Management finally sold Metcalf South to Lane4 Property Group. In 2017, Lane4 announced plans to demolish and redevelop the property (excluding Sears).
