Sears Home Appliance Showroom #4651 - Pottstown, PA


SEARS HOME APPLIANCE SHOWROOM #4651

Opened: 2013
Closed: 2018
Address: 223 Shoemaker Rd
Photographed: April 2022


So back in the early 2010s, Sears wanted to replace all their closing full-line stores with smaller-format Hometown, Home Appliance Showroom, Outlet, etc. stores. One of these places where Sears did this was Pottstown where the closing Sears #2484 at Coventry Mall closed in 2012. In April 2013, a smaller Sears Home Appliance Showroom opened up the street. The Home Appliance Showroom lasted for barely five years, closing on April 23, 2018.


The part of the building that is now becoming Stowe Medical Group is where the Sears Home Appliance Showroom once was.

The Abandoned Big Kmart in Willow Street, PA One Year After Closure

We featured this store on the blog many times, so to check out those posts, please click here.
Kmart #3810 closed on April 18, 2021; and on April 18, 2022, I documented the abandoned store. It will become an Ocean State Job Lot later this year, which will be the first OSJL in Lancaster County.








I still can't believe it's already been a year.........
