[edit] History

Originally constructed in 1966, Inland Center was built on top of the former Urbita Springs area[1]. The mall started off with three anchor buildings, and featured a large cement vault in the center of the mall serving it's main entrance. Since 1986, the Robinsons-May company constructed the fourth anchor building in Inland Center's former Main entrance, along with a 4 story parking structure. Lots adjacent to the Parking Structure and most of the Western parking areas of the center are being taken and used in the recent I-215 expansion project under way from SANBAG and CalTrans[2].

[edit] Recent Construction

In 2006, the original Macy's store which occupied a dated The Broadway location was closed and the more modern 165,000 sq. ft. Robinsons-May was converted to Macy's as part of the Federated Department Stores merger with May Department Stores. Mervyn's is to take over the old 94,011 square ft. building after a renovation project slated to be complete in October 2008 [3].

Inland Center is managed by Macerich.
