Talk:Smith Haven Mall

Size of anchors
This article says (unsourced) that Martin's was 68,000 sq ft. That location later became Steinbach and then later (and currently) JC Penney. However, the article says (also unsourced) that JC Penney is 91,873 sq ft. How can Martin's have been only 68,000 sq ft if JC Penney is 91,873 sq ft when JC Penney is in the former Matrin's location? They should be exactly the same size. Also, the article says (unsourced) that Martin's closed in 1977 and that Steinbach opened in 1987 (also unsourced). Was that space really vacant for 10 years? That could be. I was born in 1979, so I don't remember Martin's, and I do remember Steinbach opening sometime in the mid-late 80s, and I have no memory of what was previously in that space. But it seems extremely unlikely that a large space was completely unused during that time, especially given that the mall was expended during that era to add a food court and a few more stores (around 1986 or 1987). If nobody has an answer, and if nobody can find any reliable sources, then the unsourced information should probably be deleted. Also, does anybody know the size of the former A&S store?
