History[edit]

The mall was built by Interstate Properties, with Grant City and Montgomery Ward serving as the original anchors.[2] Hecht's later took over the Grant's space. Leggett and Sears were added in the 1980s. At this point, the mall was opened by Interstate Properties.[3]

Leggett closed in 1997, and J. C. Penney took over the space the same year.[4] Also that year, the Hecht's relocated to a new store, with Target Corporation building a new store on the former Hecht's site.[5] After Montgomery Ward closed, Sears moved into the former Montgomery Ward building. Hecht's became Macy's in September 2006. Walmart would end up building a new Supercenter, in turn demolishing the west wing with the new Walmart opening up around 2010. On February 3, 2013, Target would end up closing due to underperforming in sales.[6] In 2015, it was announced At Home would replace J C. Penney which would close.[7][8]

In February 2020, Sears was permanently closed due to bankruptcy.[9] In December 2023, Floor & Decor opened in a majority of the former Sears space.[10] The former auto center remains vacant.
