Bham. I haunted downtown from the 70s thru the 90s. I use to treat myself for my birthday by taking a trip downtown to go to the movie theatres in Grand Circus Park or the RenCen. I use to go to Flaming Embers to eat or simply McDonalds. United Shirts used to be where American Coney Island's extension is now. Hardees used to be on Griswold as well as other fast food joints. New Center area had more stores as well as Crowley that anchored the area up until 1999 when it closed it's doors inside the New Center One building which I think has great potential to house City Target in the future. Hudsons didn't clear out it's flagship store until 1984 and still was having warehouse sales.
