Northgate Mall is an enclosed shopping mall in Northgate, Ohio. Built in 1972, it is anchored by Burlington Coat Factory, Macy's, Sears, and Marshalls.

History

Construction began on the mall in 1970,[2] on the site of a former airport.[3] It opened in 1972, anchored by Sears, McAlpin's and Pogue's.[4] The mall also included a Kroger supermarket.[5] Pogue's became L. S. Ayres in 1983, and was sold to J. C. Penney in 1988.[6] Lazarus was added as a fourth anchor in 1992.[7] It became Macy's in 2005.[8] Dillard's, which acquired the former McAlpin's in 1998, closed in 2009.[9]

J. C. Penney moved to a new store in 2006. A movie theater was scheduled to open on the site of the former building,[10] but this was never added due to the mall's then-owners defaulting on a $74 million loan.[11]

In 2012, the mall was sold to Tabani Group. The same year, DSW opened in part of the former Dillard's, with Marshalls taking another portion.[12] A space briefly occupied by Famous Labels became Burlington Coat Factory.[13] Also filling portions of the former Dillard's in 2013 were Michaels, hhgregg, and Ulta.[14] Ashley Furniture also opened in 2014, and the former J. C. Penney space finally underwent redevelopment for an Xscape theater.[15]
