History

Founding

Coddingtown Mall was built in 1962 by Hugh Codding. Originally an open-air mall, it was enclosed in 1979. [2] The expansion also added Liberty House, which was converted to Macy's in 1984. In 1996, Macy's moved to a spot previously occupied by The Emporium. As a result, Gottschalks moved into the former Liberty House/Macy's building. [3] [4] Codding sold a 50% share of the mall to Simon Property Group in 2005. After the sale to Simon, many merchants criticized Simon for failing to bring chain stores to the mall. [5] A Ralphs supermarket in the mall was demolished in 2008 for a Whole Foods Market, [6] whose opening was ultimately delayed until 2010, [7] and Gottschalks closed in 2009. [8]

Modern history

In November 2012, the former Gottschalks building was demolished to make way for a Target store, [9] which opened in 2014. [10] Mall officials announced in 2015 that a new building for Nordstrom Rack would replace the section housing merchants including Bank of the West and Baskin-Robbins, several of which were moved to new units. [11] Nordstrom Rack opened in 2016. [12]

In December 2017, the mall returned to fully local ownership after the Codding family business repurchased the 50% stake in the shopping center previously owned by mall giant Simon Property Group. [13]

On March 11, 2019, a woman was shot and killed in her car outside the Crunch Fitness gym. The shooter, her husband, then drove to his home and killed himself. [14]

In 1997, the San Francisco-based band Primus released the song "Coddingtown" as part of the Brown Album . According to the song, "you can get it all down there from tennis balls to glue". [15]
