Cherry Hill Mall is 50

It was a shopaholic’s dream — even before the word became part of the American lexicon. It had 90 stores, exotic birds, tropical plants, fountains and a movie theater. It attracted people by the busload from all over the Northeast. Today, the Cherry Hill Mall, the nation’s first enclosed shopping center to open east of the Mississippi River, celebrates its 50th birthday. http://bit.ly/qPEQId
