History

Carlisle Plaza was built as an open-air shopping plaza in 1964, with backing from David Javitch, founder of Giant Food Stores, and his son, Lee, who would soon become president and CEO of Giant. [6] [1] Under the ownership of Crown American Realty Trust (then called Crown Construction Company), plans were announced in 1968 for an expansion of the plaza into an enclosed mall. [7] The enlarged and enclosed mall opened in 1976. [8] Crown American sold the mall to Michael Joseph Development Corporation under the name Carlisle Realty Partners for $5.8 million in November 2002. [1] [9] [10] In August 2003 the mall was renamed from Carlisle Plaza Mall to The Point at Carlisle Plaza. [1] It was reconfigured in the early 2000s with 200,000 sq ft. being removed including two anchor buildings formerly occupied by Albion Point Antiques & Collectibles/Kmart and J. C. Penney. [1] [2] A mural about the history of Carlisle located in the mall had to be relocated before the construction. [11] [12] Lowe's would open on the former space in February 2004, and also owns its store. [1] [3] [13] The malls renovations would cost $4 million. [14]

Cedar (Cedar Carlisle LLC) purchased the mall in August 2005 for $11 million. [1] Dunham's Sports opened at the mall in late September 2005. [15] Giant (Point Plaza LLC) purchased the mall for $7.35 million in October 2012. [1] [3] [16] The Bon-Ton announced in late January 2018 its store would be closing. [17] [18] [19] The former Bon-Ton was used in January 2019 for storage of new Giant shopping carts. [20]
