Sadly, I hadn't realized that Jaison’s Department Store in McKeesport, Pennsylvania was demolished in January, 2022. Founded in 1926 by the Balter family, Jaison’s was a high-end clothing store that eventually grew to include locations in Braddock, Greengate Mall, Monroeville Mall, South Hills Village Mall, Southland Shopping Center, and Century III Mall. Jaison’s was one of the anchors of the Downtown McKeesport business district, but it went into decline following layoffs at U.S. Steel’s National Works, and the plant’s eventual closure. The McKeesport store closed in 1985. It became a bingo hall in 1991.
