Liberty Tree Mall - Raw & Real Retail
This is our walkthrough of the Liberty Tree Mall located in Danvers, MA from March 13, 2019. This is a rather bottom-rung Simon mall, with plenty of vacancies and very little in the way of color or decor.

Here is some information from Wikipedia:
The Liberty Tree Mall is a shopping mall in Danvers, Massachusetts, U.S., managed by the Simon Property Group.
Simon Property Group owns one third of the common area of the mall, between Kohl's and Best Buy; the right-hand area of the property from Best Buy to Staples is owned by Target; and the property from Kohl's to Dick's Sporting Goods is owned by New England Development, the mall's original developer.
Construction began in 1969, and the mall opened with a dedication ceremony on February 21, 1972. The mall was renovated and expanded first in 1980 and again in 1993. The mall is located less than a mile away from the Northshore Mall in Peabody, although both malls are primarily owned and managed by Simon Property Group. Since the 1980s, the Liberty Tree Mall has focused more on the discount end, whereas the Northshore Mall has focused on the mainstream/upscale end, thus enabling them to coexist semi-peacefully. Ann & Hope, one of the former anchor stores of the mall, opened in 1969 before the mall was completed. Lechmere was the mall's other anchor, which opened with the rest of the mall in 1972.
The name Liberty Tree derives from the local version of Boston's Liberty Tree, which originally stood in downtown Boston. During the early years of the mall, a large metal tree stood at the center court to commemorate the Liberty Tree. The sculpture was a featured exhibit in the New England Pavilion at the 1964–65 New York World's Fair and was designed by Albert Surman, who died in 2010. The sculpture was removed sometime between 1988 and 1992, and is now considered lost.
In 1980, a food court was added that included restaurants such as The Roast House and The Fairgrounds. A Marshalls was added during the 1980s, and has been in the mall since then. Marshalls is the only remaining original anchor store. Filene's Basement, which subleased a portion of the Lechmere space in 1983, moved to the Northshore Mall in the 1990s. Sports Authority and Old Navy were added after the 1993 food court-hallway expansion. Sports Authority closed in 2016, after the company filed for bankruptcy, and was replaced with SkyZone.
Lechmere and Filene's Basement were anchor stores of the mall until 1997 when they were demolished and rebuilt into Target, Staples, Dollar Tree, and Best Buy in 1998–99. An f.y.e. replaced part of an area of smaller stores, converting them into a music store/video arcade (formerly Dream Machine), both of which have since closed. Another group of stores was converted to Bed Bath & Beyond.
Ann & Hope closed their entire chain of stores in 2001, and this included the Liberty Tree Mall location. This location was later rebuilt into Kohl's. Stop & Shop and Pier 1 Imports were later built to the left of Kohl's. A Loews Theatres 20-screen multiplex was also added to the mall. In January 2008, Stop & Shop closed. The 91,000-square-foot store was originally built in 2003. The former Stop & Shop space was converted for use by Nordstrom Rack and Off Broadway Shoe Warehouse, which opened in November 2008. In 2009, the former f.y.e. was replaced by a Steve & Barry's, which stayed open until the company filed for bankruptcy.
In early 2013, PPE Casino Resorts applied to the state gambling commission for a slots parlor in the rear area of the mall, where Marshalls and the food court are located now. The announcement led to some debate, with some concerned about the character of the mall and others optimistic about jobs and revenue a slots parlor could generate for the community.

Erik Swanson Video Blog 10 (Liberty Tree Mall)
Hi Folks,
Today I'm here at the Liberty Tree Mall in Danvers, MA. Mostly, it's fun to yap about growing up and how important this mall was to me as a kid.
Danvers MA. is a scary town.
Today I was innocently Geocaching in a stretch of woods in Danvers MA. when I stumbled upon the most insane area I have ever seen. An old demolished Tannery on top of soil contaminated with arsenic, a ton of shopping carts, bikes, and even a cart full of creepy dolls and other random toys! To top it all off I discovered the forgotten Endicott Cemetery is also hidden away up here in these random woods. But the worst find of all was the ACTIVE homeless camp that I find at the end of my adventure. Danvers really is one creepy town!
The tunnels under Danvers MA. really do exist!
So this video is unlike my usual videos. It wasn't a video I prepared to make. Two friends and I just randomly decided to check out a patch of woods in Danvers where I heard the infamous Danvers State Mental Hospital tunnels were located, we didn't expect to ACTUALLY find an open tunnel at all! We just went to see if it were true, and there it was! So this video was VERY spur-of-the-moment. I realize it's choppy, and doesn't have the best lighting and it's not as organized as my other videos. We were just so shocked we were inside the tunnel that I didn't really think much about the video while I was recording. lol. This was a REALLY awesome explore though! I have heard rumors of these tunnels for YEARS and NEVER thought I'd actually be INSIDE one! Supposedly they used to lead to the Danvers State mental hospital where the transferred patients with Tuberculosis (and other ailments) to and from the hospital without exposing them to the outside world. The hospital is now a condo complex, but these tunnels are about a mile away. Definitely a surreal experience to be inside them!! Again, sorry for the erratic filming and choppy editing on this one (and the lighting, we only had some weak flashlights on hand!) But you pretty much get a good idea of what it's like to be inside the tunnel! I plan to go back and find more (if there are any more)
