MASON CITY – Another store in Southbridge Mall is closed.
Tradehome Shoe store is completely out of business. There were workers inside the store Wednesday boxing up merchandise and display equipment.
One young Mason City millennial wandering in the mall told NIT, “Never seen so many closed store fronts here. This place is so sad. I wish I could ice skate or something. I guess I’ll go home and play video games instead, or maybe check out Bernie Sanders’ Twitter feed.”
The Tradehome sign had been removed from the top of the storefront. No one answered the phone at the store, nor did anyone answer the phone at the Southbridge Mall office.
Many in town are wondering when or if Younkers will close next, or if police will catch the creep who attacked a woman in the parking lot recently.
Today, a new sub shop will open in the food court area. The Submarine will have a grand opening event.
