Brody's, the successor to Roses, was sold to Proffitt's in 1998. [3] Best Buy was added in November 2004. [4] The same year, a movie theater operated by Cinema Grill closed. [5]

The mall was owned by General Growth Properties for nine years, then sold to Cadillac Fairview, and again to current owners Hendon Properties in 2005. [6] [7]
