Oh man. I was singing the actual lyrics to Mr. Rogers’s Neighborhood as the music was playing. Oh the memories of a simpler time when mankind was just a little less cruel and divided (for me it was around 1982 as my first recollection of watching Fred Rogers. While I’m at it - Today’s Special, Zoobilee Zoo, Sesame Street, Reading Rainbow, Shining Time Station and Square One were the shows that my grandmother allowed me to watch while my mother was at work - that, and Bonanza and Hawaii Five-O on Philadelphia’s TV 48 back in 1982 before I was old enough to go to school. Anyway, when Fred Rogers died, I cried like a baby. He was just so full of positivity.

I live just down the street. I believe this mall started to hit hard times when the Waterfront came in. West Mifflin, especially the area around the mall, has started to go through some revitalization. There is talk of trying to salvage the area and turn it into office space surrounded by park, walking paths, etc. She was glorious and one of a kind in her day. Tough to watch what has happened to her. We were able to get in and take a last walk through before they locked her down...got a few pics to remember her. Thanks for the videos over the years.

One of the absolute HIGHLIGHTS of our summer trips to visit the grandparents in Greenfield was a sojourn to the really funky, really NEAT Century III, over the Mon and beyond the hills above Homestead. It. Was. BEAUTIFUL. I loved the quirky ramps, the absolutely-asymmetric layout, the sudden emergence of THREE floors at the east end (and that ice cream in the food court!), the glorious lighting, and that crazy-tall artwork..... "On their backs were vermiculate patterns that were maps of the world in its becoming. Maps and mazes. Of a thing which could not be put back. Not be made right again."

Sad to see this place in such disarray. The roads are absolutely trash but most of our roads in Pittsburgh are. The C3 roads are apocalyptic in nature. This was the spot to go from all around the city. If you couldn't find it here in the North Hills, you went to C3. Sad developers went ham in the region and poped these new malls out like crazy. Looking at you Pittsburgh Mills. Just a absolute waste.

I grew up in Pittsburgh and lived in Bridgeville, PA for several years of my childhood. I remember coming to this mall every Friday night with my dad, brother, and sister and get a large pepperoni pizza at the old Italian Village Pizza. It's so sad what happened to this mall over the years. Last time I visited this place was in 2017 with a friend and the mall only had about 5-10 stores open, and a few of those were actually closed for the day. I even have a friend I've known since I was 6 years old that worked at the OLD, old Cash N' Culture that used to be up on the second floor (which eventually moved to the Annex right outside Westmoreland Mall). She goes by the name Denise if anybody might know or remember her! I had a lot of memories of this mall and it was such a huge staple of my childhood. I think what greatly contributed to the decline of this place was the competition from the Waterfront complex in Homestead that opened in the 90s. That, along with the declining of retail businesses in general as most of them are either closed or have converted to entirely online entities, really pushed this mall down the drain. Rest In Peace, Century 3! Plus, your videos are great! Keep it up

Sometimes I was afforded the generosity of free rides from fellow dormies with cars, and sometimes had the luxury of paying for a cab. I remember how big these malls, especially Century III felt to me, though I went out to Robinson a lot as I recall because of all of the restaurants. But I did shop quite a lot at Century III.

I'm relieved it isn't very damaged on the outside(vs. how the exterior was like before closing), in the just over 14 months since the last inline stores moved out(February 2019). My gut feeling is that it'll probably sit abandoned for a while, until some new development plan emerges. If there was talk last year that demolition would start by March 2020 on C3 and it hasn't yet happened, I'm not holding my breath demolition will occur for a while here. Thanks for your exterior walkthrough, to show what C3 is like now.

A lot of people will tell you that the demise of this mall was due to the opening of the nearby Waterfront in 1999. I believe the decline started years earlier. I can remember shopping in one of the mall's department stores known as 'Lazarus" in the mid 90's and noticed that the higher-end leased spaces (Claiborne, Nautica, Polo,...) had moved out. Again, several years before the Waterfront opened. The Waterfront accelerated the decline of Century 3 but you can't overlook the great loss in manufacturing and blue collar jobs nearby that lead to the lack of $$$ to support both properties plus South Hills Village. Too bad, C3 was a great mall; huge place, large food court and wide walkways. RIP.

Is that the storage business at Rolling Acres that set up shop inside a former anchor before it was demolished, and posted a warning sign inside the mall that if their interior entrance was damaged, that they would prosecute anyone doing so? And I think that sign said something like 'turn away now, before you are prosecuted'? Forget the exact words of that sign, but it said something to that extent during the years Rolling Acres stopped being a mall, up till its demolition. Didn't realize it was those cameras set up by that business, as to how Dan Bell got caught.

However, it was kind of cool to see the boarded-up doors and get a sense of its outside condition, and it never hurts to hear your off-the-cuff remarks about the place, either. As to the idea that it might become 'another Rolling Acres,' I tend to agree with you wholeheartedly. The funny thing is, I'd rather not see that happen, yet there's a part of me that really wishes that it might actually DO that, if only because I never got around to seeing Rolling Acres firsthand. Anyhow, Anthony, thanks for this "cozy" outdoor mall walk, and it is with all sincerity that I say that I hope you make it in again someday.

Not sure if an outside company was hired or if West Mifflin Police patrols the property. Also, I believe that was an entrance that you asked about. I believe a store called Lazarus took over Hornes. If i remember correctly that entrance was removed while Lazarus was still there. Looking at those docks.. I remember each night going in and checking the corridors to the stores.

Oh man. I was singing the actual lyrics to Mr. Rogers’s Neighborhood as the music was playing. Oh the memories of a simpler time when mankind was just a little less cruel and divided (for me it was around 1982 as my first recollection of watching Fred Rogers. While I’m at it - Today’s Special, Zoobilee Zoo, Sesame Street, Reading Rainbow, Shining Time Station and Square One were the shows that my grandmother allowed me to watch while my mother was at work - that, and Bonanza and Hawaii Five-O on Philadelphia’s TV 48 back in 1982 before I was old enough to go to school. Anyway, when Fred Rogers died, I cried like a baby. He was just so full of positivity.

I live just down the street. I believe this mall started to hit hard times when the Waterfront came in. West Mifflin, especially the area around the mall, has started to go through some revitalization. There is talk of trying to salvage the area and turn it into office space surrounded by park, walking paths, etc. She was glorious and one of a kind in her day. Tough to watch what has happened to her. We were able to get in and take a last walk through before they locked her down...got a few pics to remember her. Thanks for the videos over the years.

One of the absolute HIGHLIGHTS of our summer trips to visit the grandparents in Greenfield was a sojourn to the really funky, really NEAT Century III, over the Mon and beyond the hills above Homestead. It. Was. BEAUTIFUL. I loved the quirky ramps, the absolutely-asymmetric layout, the sudden emergence of THREE floors at the east end (and that ice cream in the food court!), the glorious lighting, and that crazy-tall artwork..... "On their backs were vermiculate patterns that were maps of the world in its becoming. Maps and mazes. Of a thing which could not be put back. Not be made right again."

Beautiful opening and homage to my hometown of Pittsburgh! I live 2 miles from the Ross Park Mall but have been to C3 several times years ago. I attend classes at the community College that has a campus near the C3 mall. I drove past it last summer just out of curiosity after class. It was dark and not really a place I desired to linger. Sad to see this place in such disarray. The roads are absolutely trash but most of our roads in Pittsburgh are. The C3 roads are apocalyptic in nature. This was the spot to go from all around the city. If you couldn't find it here in the North Hills, you went to C3. Sad developers went ham in the region and poped these new malls out like crazy. Looking at you Pittsburgh Mills. Just a absolute waste.
0:56 Ah yes... The good ol' Kaufmann's clock. Does it even STILL WORK. Sad though because that was MOST FAVORITE department store I have EVER BEEN TO.

This is the eeriest dead mall video I've watched. The mall and the general area as it exists now, if one can call it existing, almost has a Centralia, PA feel about it. Like Centralia, it seems like something is on the verge of caving in here.
I live about two and a half hours north of Pittsburgh. As a kid every day I'd hear on tv the Century III Chevrolet Commercial! Of course they always ended it with "Minutes From The Mall" All my life I've lived here and never made it down to that mall! As a kid I use to beg my parents to go check it out! But they never would! So I never got to see it when it was alive and doing well! So it's pretty sad for me to see this, knowing I'll never be able to shop there. I've heard as well that they want to level the place. I know it was built on top of a landfill, so there's some serious issues with that!

I grew up in Pittsburgh and lived in Bridgeville, PA for several years of my childhood. I remember coming to this mall every Friday night with my dad, brother, and sister and get a large pepperoni pizza at the old Italian Village Pizza. It's so sad what happened to this mall over the years. Last time I visited this place was in 2017 with a friend and the mall only had about 5-10 stores open, and a few of those were actually closed for the day. I even have a friend I've known since I was 6 years old that worked at the OLD, old Cash N' Culture that used to be up on the second floor (which eventually moved to the Annex right outside Westmoreland Mall). She goes by the name Denise if anybody might know or remember her! I had a lot of memories of this mall and it was such a huge staple of my childhood. I think what greatly contributed to the decline of this place was the competition from the Waterfront complex in Homestead that opened in the 90s. That, along with the declining of retail businesses in general as most of them are either closed or have converted to entirely online entities, really pushed this mall down the drain. Rest In Peace, Century 3! Plus, your videos are great! Keep it up
Ah good ol' Pittsburgh. My 2nd home city. I have fond memories of taking the bus from downtown Duquesne University to Ross Park Mall, Century III Mall, and Robinson Town Centre on lazy weekends as a college student. Sometimes I was afforded the generosity of free rides from fellow dormies with cars, and sometimes had the luxury of paying for a cab. I remember how big these malls, especially Century III felt to me, though I went out to Robinson a lot as I recall because of all of the restaurants. But I did shop quite a lot at Century III.
I'm relieved it isn't very damaged on the outside(vs. how the exterior was like before closing), in the just over 14 months since the last inline stores moved out(February 2019). My gut feeling is that it'll probably sit abandoned for a while, until some new development plan emerges. If there was talk last year that demolition would start by March 2020 on C3 and it hasn't yet happened, I'm not holding my breath demolition will occur for a while here. Thanks for your exterior walkthrough, to show what C3 is like now.

I grew up near west Mifflin, it’s a nice area. I went to century 3 mall several times Over the years... I just think malls are becoming obsolete and the waterfront being built also played into effect
A lot of people will tell you that the demise of this mall was due to the opening of the nearby Waterfront in 1999. I believe the decline started years earlier. I can remember shopping in one of the mall's department stores known as 'Lazarus" in the mid 90's and noticed that the higher-end leased spaces (Claiborne, Nautica, Polo,...) had moved out. Again, several years before the Waterfront opened. The Waterfront accelerated the decline of Century 3 but you can't overlook the great loss in manufacturing and blue collar jobs nearby that lead to the lack of $$$ to support both properties plus South Hills Village. Too bad, C3 was a great mall; huge place, large food court and wide walkways. RIP.
So I live in West Mifflin, which is a weird borough as it is split into two sides. CIII is on the less rough side, though both sides are fairly quiet, middle class areas.
Great video- sad- but well documented. I grew up in this mall almost every summer (my grandparents lived down 51 in Clariton) when I'd visit family. It was always busy.

Seeing this mall in the state generally makes me sad. I remember spending much of my young childhood at this mall. I remember going to the pet store on the lower level with my mom when I was around 5. I remember making my first big buy at the GameStop there when I bought an Xbox 360. I remember always asking my parents to take the “cool way” ramp from mall dr. closest to 885. The last time I walked in the mall was when I was 18 years old, 8 years after I got my Xbox. I remember that gorgeous fountain. I was meeting my prom date there and when I was early I toured the mall. I hope something really good does come out of it. My mom always said it went downhill after the bus stop got put in there..
Sad the state of the Kaufmann’s building
Cool Mr Rodgers
I used to go to that mall a lot. Used to boom back in the day. Sooo sad to see it’s gone !!!
This part of west mifflin is not bad but east of here in Mkeesport is not a good area and what happened was that the port authority bus system had a stop here at C3 and it brought a lot of issues. Plus south hills village mall is about a half hour from C3 and is a MUCH better place and also the waterfront in homestead is about 15 minutes away. I grew up at C3 and spent many of my young years here. I was at C3 a month before it closed and it was honestly so eerie
14:29 At Rotting Acres the guy who owned the storage company in the former Target (that storage company now resides in the former Macy's at Chapel Hill Mall which is itself dying) had installed cameras aimed toward the mall; that's how Dan Bell got caught while he was filming the mall...

Is that the storage business at Rolling Acres that set up shop inside a former anchor before it was demolished, and posted a warning sign inside the mall that if their interior entrance was damaged, that they would prosecute anyone doing so? And I think that sign said something like 'turn away now, before you are prosecuted'? Forget the exact words of that sign, but it said something to that extent during the years Rolling Acres stopped being a mall, up till its demolition. Didn't realize it was those cameras set up by that business, as to how Dan Bell got caught.

The Waterfront was the final nail in a very large coffin
That place you asked if it was a doorway, it was. For horne’s, lazuraus, and I believe Kaufman’s furniture. The sealed it at one point I believe since there was one not too far away. As for the decline it started when they lost the families, they were building newer complexes nearby, and Walmart coming in didn’t help. Worked in the area for 16 years, and saw the steady decline, businesses couldn’t afford the rent, the waterfront opened, Simon started the fall and moonbeam finished it.
/nice camera - what are you using?
I'm pretty sure some of those blocked up entrances were for the old anchor Montgomery Ward on that side, they had an entrance and an auto repair part. The garage was added a couple of years after opening, and the reason it is so unstable is that is was built on an old slag dump, and the whole area is undermined.

Anthony, I gotta tell ya that I was fully prepared to hate this presentation -- I mean, who wants to see the OUTSIDE of a mall? However, it was kind of cool to see the boarded-up doors and get a sense of its outside condition, and it never hurts to hear your off-the-cuff remarks about the place, either. As to the idea that it might become 'another Rolling Acres,' I tend to agree with you wholeheartedly. The funny thing is, I'd rather not see that happen, yet there's a part of me that really wishes that it might actually DO that, if only because I never got around to seeing Rolling Acres firsthand. Anyhow, Anthony, thanks for this "cozy" outdoor mall walk, and it is with all sincerity that I say that I hope you make it in again someday.

i used to go to this mall because i got my braces on and maintained in the old sears before it moved. it was in decline back then and that was maybe 10-ish years ago? also you know it’s sad when you go to the dead malls wiki page and a photo of this mall is one of the first photos in the article.
Even in the daytime it has that creepy vibe. I sure don't want to be there at night.
I'll tell you another thing that mall may have been closed for over a year but Moonbeam corporate has been letting it rot for many years
Unfortunately ace I believe it will probably be the next rolling acres. Moonbeam will find a way to weasel their way out of this one to.
I believe those covered doors down below were from Wards/Horns/Lazarus and when Lazarus became Macy's Furniture there was ghetto remodeling and the bottom level of Macy's was just a very small show room so they most likely walled in the old outside access doors from the bigger older stores.
Great video! Question though, how is Moonbeam (or any landlord/owner) collecting taxes on a dead mall? Here in Canada the landlord would be paying taxes every year on it. Property taxes among other things. Also wish you had a selfie stick to possibly see over those boarded up entrances. Nice video!
I appreciate your video. I was security there back in the mid 90s. I do not believe there is any security there now. I've remained in contact with some of the security there and know they were direct employees of the mall so I believe when it closed they were gone. Not sure if an outside company was hired or if West Mifflin Police patrols the property. Also, I believe that was an entrance that you asked about. I believe a store called Lazarus took over Hornes. If i remember correctly that entrance was removed while Lazarus was still there. Looking at those docks.. I remember each night going in and checking the corridors to the stores.

What's the business case for owning an abandoned mall? Even at a fire sale price the owners spent a lot of money to buy the mall and there's recurring costs to own the thing - even if its boarded up.
People say that when Simon took over this mall and South Hills Village that they let C3 fall by the wayside because SHV was more desirable to them. And, of course, the Waterfront in Homestead didn’t help.
