Crossroads seeking memories


May 11, 2012 · 10:34 AM

Crossroad Shopping Center in Bellevue is celebrating its 50th Anniversary this year and asking the public to share memories they have had of the center over the years.

The shopping center will use those to put together an exhibit that will tell the story of Crossroads from 1962 to the present.

Memories might include time spent at Crossroads when a person was younger or a favorite store or restaurant. Other memories could include attending special events such as a family skating outing or Christmas photos at the mall.

Crossroads also is looking for additional photos of the center during the years from 1962 to 1985, images of the Ice Rink, exterior images of the Center Stage (Playbarn), and aerials or wideshots of the Crossroads area prior to 1980.

Those with memories, stories, photos or memorabilia to share can send them to photosofcrossroads@gmail.com.
