I’m moving out and need to get rid of stuff and would like them off my hands so I’m willing to give away for free. I have a Bobs furniture couch, a small round table with 2 chairs (west elm), orange sofa chair, kitchen island cart, & a white tv stand. You just have to be available to pick up.

Simple version: When did the old Funcoland of Forest Commons move to the Shoprite plaza?
Long version:
After a thread some time ago about a Starbucks opening up in the Western Beef Forest shopping plaza, someone mentioned that the spot used to be a Funcoland. It brought back forgotten memories of a time in 2004 where my mom and I were trying to find a Gamestop in a Forest ave shopping plaza between 440 and South ave and did not have success, therefore had to drive all the way to the Staten Island mall’s Gamestop.
Later I would find out that the Gamestop we were looking for was (rather hidden) in the Forest Promenade (Shoprite plaza).
But why would we have been driving all the way down to the Western Beef Plaza? Had the Gamestop always been by Shoprite? Had it been by Shoprite when it was a Funcoland?
And boom, I finally get it clarified with this post.
But does anyone know when this happened?
I remember going to a Funcoland as a 4-5 year old in 1994/1995 and I’m almost positive it was in the Western Beef plaza now. Both the Western Beef Plaza and the Shoprite plaza seem like they were built within a few years of each other so it gets confusing. In addition, I remember when Shoprite opened in 1994 there.
