History

After many years of planning, Kitsap Mall opened in August 1985 with great success. As a result Seattle malls started to shrink in business and the retail core of west Puget Sound / Kitsap County was shifted from Bremerton, WA to the Silverdale area. The mall's original anchors were Lamonts, Sears, and The Bon Marche. Later in the decade, and after much success, Kitsap Mall nearly doubled in size, adding JCPenney, and Mervyns, while The Bon Marche was expanded to the east nearly doubling its size. In 2000, Lamonts became Gottschalks. The Bon Marche was re-branded under the Macy's name plate in 2005. In 2006, Kitsap Mall received a big change as Gottschalks closed down. The building housed Gottschalks was torn down and replaced by a new building, which now houses Barnes and Noble and Cost Plus World Market. In 2007, Mervyns closed down. It has been replaced by a new building for Kohls. In 2008, Hollister Co. opened in a location formerly occupied by the Disney store.
