     History
    The Amsterdam Mall, now known as the Riverfront Center opened in 1981. It was originally anchored by Carl's Company, and included many mall staples such as CVS, Radio Shack, Orange Julius. The mall was built at Main Street, where the former successful downtown had once thrived.

    The failing manufacturing economy in Amsterdam lead to the closure of several job makers. The high taxes and poverty in Amsterdam resulted in gradual tenant attrition. The mall changed hands a number of times. At one point a developer wanted to run a paved Main Street through the mall for cars, buses and as a mixed use as an Amtrak Station.

    The current owners have maintained the facility, although there are very retailers. Currently much of the space is used by a variety of offices.

    The dated, photogenic mall escaped the "modernization" attempts of other local malls. It is accessible, there is significant daylight and working late 70's fixtures.
