When Dean Sherrill first moved Midwest Rare Coins into the Parkade Center 13 years ago, the complex had long ceased to be the hotspot it once was as Columbia’s first shopping mall.
“There was a time when I first moved here when it was like a ghost mall,” Sherrill said.
His store is one of the longest-serving tenants at Parkade, which has changed hands twice since Sherrill arrived. After the Burnam family, owners of Storage Mart, bought the property in 2004, the historic shopping center’s revival began. “They’ve made a big difference,” Sherrill said.
