History

With an investment of over US$ 45 million, the mall started operating on April 17, 1997, with four anchor stores: Ace Home Center (later Maestro between 2008 and 2010 and currently Sodimac as of 2025), Santa Isabel ( Plaza Vea since 2001), Saga Falabella (Falabella since 2018) and Ripley.

In 2002, a fire at a nightclub on its first floor killed 29 people and injured 54 others. The nightclub, located at space 1E-A, had been operating without a licence. [2]

In 2004, a Krispy Kreme store was inaugurated, beginning the brand's operations in the country, which ceased in 2012. [3]

A Blockbuster store operated until 2006, being replaced by Boticas Fasa (later Mifarma). A medical building, Jockey Salud, was inaugurated in November 2007.

A boulevard with a number of stores opened in November 2010.

In 2012, a Hard Rock Cafe opened at its first floor, marking the brand's return to the country since 2001, when it closed its restaurant in Larcomar. It eventually closed in 2019. [3] [4]

In 2014, the country's second Forever 21 store opened in the mall until 2024, closing in part due to the COVID-19 pandemic in Peru. [3]
