Kmart #3196, located at 2200 E. High Street in Pottstown, Pennsylvania (even though it's technically in Sanatoga) opened in 1980 as part of the Sanatoga Shopping Center. It closed in 2014 (2 years after Pottstown's Sears) and became Liberty Thrift Store soon after, in 2016, although Kmart's facade remains to this date. Also, may I add that this is the first 1980s store that I have photographed.
