Yesterday’s: Hatcher Point Mall

Operating within the Hatcher Point Mall, later known as The Mall at Waycross, at 2209 Memorial Drive in Waycross, Georgia, Yesterday’s served as a recreational establishment for the local community. While precise opening and closing dates for Yesterday’s remain undocumented, its presence within a regional shopping center like Hatcher Point Mall suggests it likely offered a selection of coin-operated arcade games and other attractions common to such venues during its operational period.

The Hatcher Point Mall itself began construction in 1973, evolving over the decades as a commercial hub for Waycross and surrounding areas, housing various anchor stores and smaller businesses. Yesterday’s would have contributed to the mall’s entertainment offerings, providing a dedicated space for arcade gaming. Specific details regarding the types of games available or its particular significance to the community beyond being a general entertainment option within the mall are not readily available in historical records.
