    I grew up in Euclid in the late 70's up to the late 80's. The area was always rather poor. I lived on Babbitt Road and had many fond memories of going down to the Euclid Square mall. When this Toys R Us opened I was still quite young and was so excited. It is such a shame that Euclid hit even harder times in the 90's.

    When did this store close? Judging by it's appearance, it's been unchanged since its opening. It got that trendy "R" that the company focused on when they rid stores of Jeoffrey.

    This poor store always had a strange location. It was hard to get to and off the beaten path. You had to know it was there and make it a designated stop. Not many free-standing toy stores left at all any more.

    These photos are elusive; incredible set here. I'm a Toys 'R' Us aficiando myself, attempting to see all the stores that resemble this one (their original store design) that survive today (and there aren't many). Unfortunately, most of them are far outside Connecticut and not vacant like this Euclid one. Again, wonderful photos and close-ups. Apart from the town's inability to keep businesses active, it's truly a gem for retail shooters.
