The Euclid Square Mall is not abandoned or dead. The Mall tenants have been shifting the function & purpose of the structure from retail establishment into a faith based community center & places of worship. There are still some retail stores changing the way they do business to survive. Everyone is working toward something that has never been seen. This is a simple documentation of transformation.

Design Inspiration Salon
The seasons have passed and so do many things. In the summer I sat down with George G of Design Inspiration Salon. We spoke of his experiences in the mall from when he was a teenager saving up to buy his first pair of Fila kicks to his role as a business owner in the mall. The salon had to close much to my chagrin(I had some pretty long locks that I had hoped George would cut.) and sadness. I hope to eventually catch up with him to discover what happened to the salon in his words. Here are some stills from the interview that capture the salon, owner and a client at a moment I would like to remember and share.
