Exploring Prince George’s Plaza in the “Wonder Years” Era

Take a trip back in time to the “Wonder Years” era at Prince George's Plaza. This open-air mall was actually the inspiration for the mall in the popular 80s show. Check out the photo to get a glimpse of what it looked like back then!

This is Prince George’s Plaza  in the “Wonder Years” era. It was actually an open-air mall in those days. Reminds me of this mall photo we posted a while back.

May 29, 1959. "Prince George Plaza, Hyattsville, Maryland. Night view." An actual mall (a long, open plaza) when it opened in 1959, the shopping center was enclosed in the 1970s and renamed the Mall at Prince Georges. Large-format safety negative by Samuel H. Gottscho.
