History

The mall opened in 1982 with J. C. Penney, Dillard's, Sears, Bealls (now Stage), and The White House. Target was added in 2004. [2] Hurricane Rita destroyed the roof of the Dillard's store, which reopened in 2006. [3] [4] Hobby Lobby, which replaced the former White House store, was damaged beyond repair. Hobby Lobby is also now closed. [5] Other parts of the mall sustained roof damage as well. [6]

Bed Bath & Beyond joined the mall in late 2006-early 2007. [7] Steve & Barry's, added in 2005, closed in 2008. [8] The space was previously Old Navy, which closed in 2004. [9]

In 2013, TJ Maxx and Shoe Dept. Encore were added. [10] The former replaced a Luby's and a Gap which had closed in 2005, [11] and the latter replaced the former Old Navy/Steve & Barry's.

On December 28, 2018, it was announced that Sears would be closing as part of a plan to close 80 stores nationwide. The store closed in March 2019. [12]

On September 15, 2022, it was announced that Bed Bath & Beyond would be closing as part of a plan to close 150 stores nationwide. [13]
