Everything but food is all there is to be found at the Swansea Mall food court with one open tenant left. Still, it's a great place to play a game of Magic or even an afternoon of Monopoly.

The food court entrance to the right was once host to Caldor, which had a tortured life towards the end resulting in fire damage. Walmart moved into the space briefly before realizing the fate of the mall and departing entirely from the mall and onto it's own spot of land.

A view into the now desolate, dried-up food court at Swansea Mall. Once a decorated landscape with a geodesic skylight is now burnt yellow and an echo of what was once a waterscape is now filled with woodchips. Many once congregated in this central area of the mall, where once straight ahead was the mall's fourth anchor Apex and to the left, Caldor, since demolished. What remains are the court's bleak offerings, now reduced to only one mom-and-pop pizza shop and a very compact video game arcade.

The lone gumball machine was just one pillar of expression seen here to the joylessness as the maintenance man in the distance cleans a mostly unsat dining area.

A view into the now desolate and dried-up food court at Swansea Mall. Once a decorated landscape with a geodesic skylight, now burnt yellow, and waterscape now filled with woodchips and well-kept foliage, reminds us of a time when people congregated here with the court's offerings, now reduced to only one mom-and-pop pizza shop and a sea of sanitized, empty tables.

The lone gumball machine was one pillar of expression to the joylessness felt here as the maintenance man in the distance keeps tables cleared for nobody.

A cramped video game arcade flanks the mall entrance, in front of a darkened, unknown storefront. This arcade actually boasts some good coin-crunchers like Cruis'n Exotica and Ms. Pac Man and even an iconic Zoltar fortune teller with wall-to-wall mirrors, unmistakably 80's.

A look down from the food court area displays the stretch of alarmingly empty storefronts against the pink-and-brown floor decor. Resilient tenants like Master Cuts keep Swansea Mall afloat amidst hard times.
