This is a nifty little site (Cinema Treasures). I must have gone to the Marlow Heights theater many times, though the only visit I remember distinctly was for the movie “Krull” (1983); it was in the summer just before I started high school.
It’s been many years since I lived in the area, but in response to the first post here—though I’m quite late in replying—I have to say that Iverson Mall had only two anchor stores: Woodward & Lothrop, and Montgomery Ward (there was never a JC Penney). Woodies went out of business in 1995 (a real shame), and Ward’s some time later (not such a shame). Both these stores had two floors, but I think that Ward’s was replaced by two stores, one for each floor. Also, I’ve never heard of this shopping center referred to as “the” Iverson Mall, just Iverson Mall, and I apologize if this is over-picky.
