extinction of Lynnhaven East..

Looks like the old Lynnhaven East strip mall is being remodeled (or torn down). It lost its Toys R Us anchor a while ago. Toys R Us went up in the late '8os, along with a couple other tenants.

This is the strip's listing in the 1992 phone directory. They weren't kidding when they described the non-consecutive suite addresses as 'Irregular'. Toys R Us and Schlotzsky's had different physical but identical (mailing) addresses?

The shell of Toys R Us. A lot of memories from this place. And it was a bold move opening there, because if I remember right.. Children's Palace was still operating just across the street when they opened, and Toy Castle was still in business just another couple blocks away. Rest in peace.
