Really enjoyed that, Blues Brothers is one of my favorite movies.
For you urban exploration types, the Dixie Square Mall in all her glory today:

Edit - Scratch that, looks like she's all gone now:

Yep, they tore the rest of it down earlier this year.
It was actually a failure from the start. I believe it was only open for 8 years. Then it sat abandoned until the Blues Brothers was filmed. Then it sat abandoned until recently when they tried to make a school campus out of one of the old department stores. That was there all the way up to the point that they tore it down.

Could have fooled me. I though that was every mall in the Saint Louis area.
