Minnesota Fabrics,
located in the Northeast Corner of the mall, was an Apache Plaza staple
for over 20 years. When the store closed in 1989 it remained
vacant until the mid-90's when the north third of the mall was sadly
demolished to make room for a new Cub Foods.
These first three photos show Minnesota
Fabrics as it looked in the 1970s (huge thanks to Mike New for
submitting them!):
This undated photo
shows what the MN Fabrics space looked like in the 1990's.
