History

Cascade Mall was built in 1989 by Winmar Company. Its original anchor stores were JCPenney, The Bon Marché, Troutman's Emporium, and Sears. [2] [3]

Winmar also built an adjacent strip mall called Cross Court, featuring a Target store. [4] The opening of the mall caused many stores to close in nearby Anacortes. [5] The Emporium store later became a second Bon Marché before both Bon Marché stores were re-branded as Macy's.

In 2012, mall management removed the food court and replaced it with a TJ Maxx. [6]

On October 16, 2014, it was announced that Sears would be closing in January 2015. [7] JCPenney followed suit in 2018. [8] In January 2020, Macy's announced that it would close both of its stores as part of a plan to close 125 stores nationwide, leaving AMC Theatres and TJ Maxx as the only remaining anchor stores left. [9] [10]

Cascade Mall was sold to Merlone Geier Partners in January 2017 for $25 million. [11]

Mass shooting

Five people were killed in a mass shooting at the mall on September 23, 2016. The shooter was Arcan Cetin, a 20-year-old emigrant from Turkey. [12]

Closure and sale

On June 9, 2020, Cascade Mall announced that it would close permanently on June 30, citing the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic in Washington. The interior is set to close, while exterior-facing tenants will be able to continue to operate. [1]

The mall changed hands again on April 11, 2023 when it was acquired by Burlington Investment Properties for $18.5 million. [13] The new ownership expected updated plans for the property to potentially be released in Fall 2023. [14]
