I used to work there part time in 1989-1990 as a binloader. It was the most fun job I've ever had and if they didn't "downsize", I'd STILL be working there! It's kinda hard to tell how MASSIVE that building was! On the 8th floor, where I worked, it could take you a loooong time to walk from the front to the back! It also amazed me that you could see Center City and the 3 Cederbrook (near where I live) apartment towers from there! Beautiful wood floors, high ceilings, thick columns... *cries*

Sounds cool - I wish I worked on that floor! Not in the section I worked, but they had Sega Genesis consoles on my floor - I worked with a couple of guys who used to steal 'em by tucking 'em under their shirts... One day, we were walkin' out the front door when we got stopped by security. Needless to say - GAME OVER! Lucky for me, I wasn't into stealing, so I didn't have anything on me. They, on the other hand, got locked-up and fired! They must've thought nobody was paying attention...

I don't ever remember a christmas tree there but do you remember the giant red telephone near the roof on the side of the warehouse? and of course the smell of the pretzels and popcorn when you walked in and the ball that the vacum cleaners would keep spinning and floating in the air for display! It really sadden me and alot of people I know who just loved that building when it came down

I grew up in Summerdale (1973-1987) before moving to Bustleton. The implosion of the Sears Tower was the end of Summerdale and Oxford Circle. The neighborhoods there are now dead. The Ebonic Plague has taken over and is spreading all over the Northeast. Sad to see it go, but I'm glad my White ass it out of there.

Great video and commentary. The stories you have of this place from when you were younger remind me exactly of the type of stories I have of what my friends and I did at Byberry/Philadelphia State Hospital before it was demolished.

I'm waiting for Julius the alleged "retard" to come on here and say that he remembers the old Sears building and remembers the newscast...when in reality, he wasn't even born yet when all this happened.

Remember this well. Stood across the Blvd. by friends hospital with our police/fire scanners watching it. Then when they imploded it we watched it from Cardinal Dougherty High's field.

I had a subway station in the basment. If it holded out, the Broad Street Subway could've served it from a branch off by Hunting Park

That was sad. It was a beautiful store they allowed to fall into disrepair... granite floors... marble walls... now it's an ugly strip mall. Cheesy at best. The fire damage could have been fixed. Don't let them fool you. It wasn't about a tradition and a "landmark" in the neighborhood... it was all about the money.
