Fox Run Mall, New Hampshire

The Fox Run Mall is a shopping mall in Newington, New Hampshire, just north of Portsmouth. Its main anchor stores include J. C. Penney, Macy's Men's & Home Store (formerly Jordan Marsh), Macy's Women's (formerly Filene's) and Sears. The mall has over 100 stores all on one level. Completed in 1983, this mall functioned mainly as a successor to the smaller and dated Newington Mall, which has since been converted into a big box retail center.

The mall is located just off U.S. Route 4 and the Spaulding Turnpike (NH Route 16). It is less than five minutes from Interstate 95. The mall is located near the Maine state border, and like the Pheasant Lane Mall and the Mall at Rockingham Park near the Massachusetts border, the Fox Run Mall draws a significant portion of its business from out-of-state customers (mostly from Maine) seeking to take advantage of New Hampshire's lack of sales tax.

Fox Run Mall is one of a small number of malls to have converted their Filene's store into a second Macy's store following the Federated and May merger. The other malls that have done this are the Cape Cod Mall [1] in Hyannis, Massachusetts, and the Northshore Mall in Peabody, Massachusetts. This gives Macy's at Fox Run a total area of nearly 140,000 square feet, on par with many of the intermediate-sized Macy's stores nationwide, and put together, make Macy's the largest department store (in total square feet) in the mall.
