-The '''Penn-Can Mall''' is a mall in the town of [[Cicero, New York]], north of [[Syracuse, New York|Syracuse]]. It opened on [[March 28]], [[1976]]. It was the first enclosed mall on the north end of Syracuse, and the fourth mall to be built in the entire metropolitan area. It was constructed by the [[Winmar Company]] of [[Seattle, Washington]], and had room for 86 stores. At the mall's inception, only 28 stores were open, but the other spaces quickly followed, followed by even more during an expansion in 1986, putting the mall's store count to 121. The mall also had a smaller upper level with a few small shops and a [[Loews Cineplex Entertainment|Loews Cinema]].  There was also an old European clock in the center court of the mall. Today the mall, including its clock, is home to a multi-dealer "auto mall" known as '''Driver's Village'''.

-==Building Design==
+[[de:Ecossaise]]
-The mall was built in a straight line, and later it was in a "T" shape following the expansion. Its anchors were built modularly, meaning that they could be demolished and rebuilt if its occupant vacated the space, and another store had to rebuild or redesign the space to fulfill that particular company's needs. The mall was also the first two-level mall in Syracuse, even though the mall's second level was smaller than the first level.

-==End of Mall==
-The Penn-Can Mall started to show signs of trouble in 1988, when the [[Great Northern Mall]] opened in [[Clay, New York]] about 10 miles away. Sears relocated, and was replaced by Steinbach. [[Chappell's]] which was also located at Northern Lights Mall also relocated to [[Great Northern Mall]] and was replaced with Bon-Ton. The big blow, however, came in [[1990]] when [[Carousel Center]] was opened about 5 miles to the south, boasting 3 levels of shopping and over 200 stores. At this time, the smaller stores at Penn-Can started to move to the new mall, and the mall started to falter. In [[1995]], Steinbach closed, and the space was split between [[Burlington Coat Factory]] and [[OfficeMax]]. Hills became Ames in [[1998]] which became a victim of arson. The mall went from the most popular to the most avoided. Before Penn-Can Mall closed down and became "Drivers Village" it was rumored that it was going to turn into an indoor amusement park instead.
-==Driver's Village==
-[[Image:Penn-Can Mall Center Court.jpg|thumb|300px|Center Court of Driver's Village in December 2006]]
-In early [[2000]], Roger Burdick, a local area auto dealer, purchased the old mall and proceeded to turn it into an auto mall, known as Driver's Village. The old Sears and Ames wings were demolished, and the rest of the mall was gutted, save for the hallway and the eastern portion of the newer wing from 1986. Ames closed in [[2002]] and was turned into a used car showroom. The rest of the mall was converted into showrooms and service centers for 15 auto makes. Remaining retail is limited to Burlington Coat Factory, two coffee shops, and a Driver's Village auto accessory store. There is also an Aspen Athletic Club. In [[2007]], four more Burdick dealerships moved to Driver's Village the former Penn-Can Mall theater building, and an additional dealership was added to the mall bringing the number of Burdick dealerships to 21.
