Former Kmart #4825

Before we dive into this month's Kmart tour, I just want to apologize for a lack of activity here on the blog as of late. I've been quite busy as of late with remodeling the house and that looks like it will continue into May; so once again don't be surprised if there is only 2 posts this month. 

Originally, this Kmart store was located in Lock Haven as a small '70s store from the looks of it. It relocated to its location in Mill Hall in the early 1990s. One interesting thing to note is that this store was supposed to close in the 2002/2003 bankruptcy, but managed to survive thanks to local efforts to preserve the store. Unfortunately, those efforts would not help later when the store closed for good in June of last year. The building remains mostly vacant today with the exception of the garden center side of the store which is now a Harbor Freight Tools store. 

Overall this felt like a very well-taken care of store, but sadly that didn't matter.
