Sears #1484, located at 1665 State Hill Road in Reading (Wyomissing), Pennsylvania opened in 1968 as part of the Berkshire Mall and as a relocation of the Shillington store, which opened in 1956. Its exterior is extremely interesting, not looking like any other Sears stores. It was announced for closure in November 2018 and closed in February 2019. The store was occupied by Spirit Halloween in Fall 2019, although no permanent plans for the building have been made to this date.

The interesting part about this store is the auto center, which still sports almost all signage.
And thanks to the contributors on Google Maps, we can see this store while it was still open.
