History

Jacobs Visconsi & Jacobs developed Eastgate Mall. Construction began in 1974, with J. C. Penney and Sears confirmed as anchor stores.[1] At opening day, the mall featured these two stores, along with 90 other tenants and space for two additional department stores.[2]

McAlpin's, now Dillard's Clearance Center opened to the public in 1992.[3] On August 4, 1995, Kohl's would officially open as the mall's fourth anchor store.[4]

On August 31, 2019, it was announced that Sears would be closing this location as a part of a plan to close 85 stores nationwide. The store closed on December 15, 2019.[5]
