In 1985, J. C. Penney occupied the site of the defunct Brown chain's store, while the Sanger-Harris store was replaced twice, first by Foley's in 1987, then by Macy's in 2006. The mall itself underwent major renovations in 1995 and in 2014. The facility has been owned since 2002 by the Simon Property Group. [6]
