Birney Plaza

 

        At first glance, the Birney Plaza would appear to be a normal shopping center. However, it actually is an enclosed strip center- technically making this another mall for the Wyoming Valley. The center was completely overhauled in recent years after Kmart closed its doors. The remodeling likely helped to attract tenants for the vacant Kmart as the space would be subdivided between Shop-Rite and Ace Hardware.

    Starting off our Massachusetts Kmart visits, we tour the westernmost one in Great Barrington. Much like the Berwick, PA store, this location was also a smaller store in a former Grants. As such a small size, no specialty departments were present. I managed to visit this location during its liquidation sale. This location is now subdivided between a Tractor Supply and a Marshalls.
