"The Oldsmobiles are in early this year."


What and where is the Dixie Square Mall?

From the newswire: 
Dixie Square Mall to Be Demolished, Finally


Originally opened in 1966, the Dixie Square Mall in Harvey, Illinois was a great place to shop:

Of course, a famous car chase scene with Jake and Elwood immortalized the place:

TRIVIA: What was the Blues Brothers' license plate number?:  Illinois BDR 529; Registered address 1060 West Addison.  Do the numbers have any significance?  The letters & numbers in the license plate refer to a bike club in Dan Aykroyd's home turf of Toronto, the "Black Diamond Riders".  The clubhouse was located at that city's 529 Jarvis Street
