Vlog/Timelapse Drive: Appleton WI to the Milwaukee WI Metro

Описание: Recorded on Thursday September 25 2025

My 43rd YouTube video (39th of 2025)

Welcome to part 3 of 5 of my September 2025 Wisconsin, Illinois, Indiana, and Michigan road trip. This video features a timelapse drive from Appleton WI to the Milwaukee WI Metro to ride the elevators at Cabela's in Richfield WI, check out Brookfield Square in Brookfield WI, check out Mayfair Mall in Wauwatosa WI, Southridge Mall in Greendale WI, Regency Mall in Racine WI, and ride elevators in 3 of those 4 malls as well.

Note: Certain portions of this video where I'm checking out malls in this video have crappy audio due to me having to erase background music out of the video due to a copyright claim from YouTube.

Update as of Friday October 24th 2025: Today, I found the name of that song that played on that arcade game that was on a toy piano I played with when I was a kid. I guess it's called Spring Song. Follow this link to the source of where I found this out and read the description    • My Song Maker Electronic Toy Keyboard  

Updates on Mayfair Mall as of Saturday December 27th 2025: The new Scheels at Mayfair Mall is going into the former Boston Store that used to be here. I also discovered that the Nordstrom store here is not replacing a former anchor store. According to Google Maps on Street View, that store and the wing for that store was added on in 2014.

Updates on Southridge Mall as of Saturday December 27th 2025: So the 3 former anchor stores here were Sears, Boston Store, and Kohl's. The Sears was where the Dick's Sporting Goods and the Round 1 Bowling is, the Boston Store is just walled up and abandoned, and the Kohl's was being occupied by a Spirit Halloween only using the top floor.

Updates on Regency Mall in Racine as of Tuesday December 30th 2025: So this mall originally had 4 anchor stores prior to when I came here on the day this was filmed. All 4 anchor stores were all on opposite sides of the mall. The south wing near where I walked in and out of here had a Burlington Coat Factory, the east wing had a Boston Store that closed in August 2018, the north wing had a Sears, and the west side had a JCPenney. At the end of this video when I walked into the "Ross Dress For Less" store here, that store along with the other 2 stores next to it are all in that former JCPenney store. The JCPenney closed somewhere between September 2013 and August 2015, and then that side of the mall was changed to what it is now somewhere between August 2015 and July 2017. All of that is according to Google Maps on Street View.

Time I left Appleton WI: Between 6:35 AM and 6:45 AM

Time I arrived in the Milwaukee WI Metro: Between 8:15 AM and 8:25 AM
