Northgate Mall is an enclosed shopping mall in Northgate, Ohio.

History

Construction on the mall began in 1970,[2] on the site of a former airport.[3] It opened on September 10, 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 1984, and then J. C. Penney in 1988.[6] Lazarus was added as a fourth anchor in 1993[7] and became Lazarus-Macy's in 2003 and then Macy's in 2005.[8] Dillard's acquired McAlpin's in 1999, and that anchor store closed in 2009.[9]

JCPenney closed their anchor store in 2006 and moved to a new location at Stone Creek Towne Center, just north of the mall property. The Pogue's/JCPenney anchor store was demolished in 2007 for construction of a 14-screen Rave multiplex movie theater,[10] but construction on the theater never began, after the mall's then-owners defaulted on a $74 million loan.[11]

In 2012, the mall was sold to Tabani Group. The vacant Dillard's anchor store was subdivided into four big-box stores in 2013 - DSW, Marshalls,[12] Michaels, and Ulta.[13] A space briefly occupied by Famous Labels in 2010 became Burlington Coat Factory in 2013.[14] In 2014, an H. H. Gregg store was added in a new structure on the north side of the old Dillard's structure. That store closed in 2017. Ashley Furniture also opened in 2014, and closed in 2024 when a new Ashley opened nearby. In 2015, the site of the demolished JCPenney anchor was filled when an Xscape theater was built.[15]

The Sears anchor store closed in November 2018, as part of a plan to close 46 stores nationwide,[16] leaving Macy’s as the sole remaining anchor.

In January 2020, Macy’s announced that they would close in March 2020 as part of a plan to close 125 stores nationwide. This left the mall with no traditional anchor stores.[17]

In October 2023, Marshalls moved to Stone Creek Towne Center, and in December of the same year the Xscape theater closed.
