Yep, there was a Sears in that mall. It was on the South end and Montgomery Wards was at the North end. I bought many tires from them.

Madison Square Sears moved from that location to where they are now.

Thanks, Tom Hargrave

Parkway City had a Wards, I don't remember a Sears. The one that is closing is at Madison Square. I asked the clerk what was going to happen to the property and he said "they are going to make it into a lake." Just what we need, a lake.
