Glenbrook Square is located at 4201 Coldwater Road, in Fort Wayne, Indiana.

Built in 1966, and expanded in 1976, 1981, 1990, 1994, and 1998, Glenbrook Square annually receives over 15 million visitors,^[1] and is the only enclosed super-regional mall in northeast Indiana, as well as the second-largest mall in the state of Indiana (Castleton Square in Indianapolis is slightly larger). Glenbrook Square has a total gross leasable area of 1,210,000 square feet (112,000 m²).^[2]

Glenbrook Square features four anchors, Barnes & Noble, JCPenney, Macy's and Sears, 152 stores and kiosks, and twelve restaurants. Hudson's, and later Marshall Field's, operated a store at Glenbrook Square from 1981 until May 2005 (shortly before the Federated Department Stores/May Co. merger). Macy's continued to own the former Marshall Field's store until December 12, 2007, when Macy's sold the vacant store back to General Growth Properties for $1 million.^[1] General Growth Properties, which has owned and operated the mall since 2003, is currently marketing the space to other retailers.
