Department stores like Macy's ... Perhaps most emblematic of the retail apocalypse are photos of dead malls. As customers increasingly shop online, malls are suffering the consequences.

The first Walmart store opened in 1962 and it was the No. 1 retailer in the US by 1990.

A second mall was built across the street in 2005 anchored by Best Buy and Target, but it's little more than a parking garage with a few stores attached ... square feet of retail space.
