Click on the™ link for a map to downtown shopping on the Greater Marshall Chamber Web site and you might decide, as a visitor, to eat at Giovanni's Italian Restaurant, or perhaps Marshall Square Cafe.

After lunch, you might think of shopping at Treasure Chest Mall or Marshall Antique Mall. Perhaps you would like to browse Marshall Book & Bible or Perkins Brothers Gift Shop.

Only one problem. Not one of those businesses exists any more. Not downtown, not anywhere in Marshall.

Unfortunately, the map does not include a number of other shopping opportunities that are open and thriving, such as the Weisman Center, Design Center and Under the Texas Sun.
