My memories are rather vague, but I think it unnerved me a little. It could probably give this store a run for its money.Jake Nelsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16942700905856579143noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9879987.post-27522689576496449472009-03-15T03:08:00.000-04:002009-03-15T03:08:00.000-04:00The'80s stuff was less colorful and fun, but Penne...The'80s stuff was less colorful and fun, but Penney's had become a victim of its merchandising and store design. That decor is fun to look at now, but it was really out of date by the time they finally updated.Livemallshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01567198484359363455noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9879987.post-47615367917883894832009-03-14T22:29:00.000-04:002009-03-14T22:29:00.000-04:00Dang, I was born in 1980 which only made me three ...Dang, I was born in 1980 which only made me three in '83. Definitely why I don't recall the groovy pattern days of Penney's. Too bad, we got stuck with boring 80s remodels which included a calmer atmosphere of pastels and fake wood and plants.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9879987.post-43670566507942019482009-03-14T00:00:00.000-04:002009-03-14T00:00:00.000-04:00Most of the stranger elements of JCPenney's decor ...Most of the stranger elements of JCPenney's decor were either completely removed or painted over in what I call "the great remodeling of 1983." pretty much every Penney store was remodeled that year.<BR/><BR/>Since you're younger than me, you might not have been old enough to remember the old-school JCPenney: I was seven or eight when they remodeled.Livemallshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01567198484359363455noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9879987.post-53561862241754324832009-03-12T11:03:00.000-04:002009-03-12T11:03:00.000-04:00LOL!
