History

Eastview Mall was built in 1971. Original tenants were Sibley's (later Kaufmann's, now Macy's) and Sears.[2] An expansion a year later added McCurdy's (later The Bon-Ton, now Von Maur).[3] It was expanded in 1995 with the addition of a wing anchored by Lord & Taylor and JCPenney and again at the main entrance with sit down restaurants. Regal Cinemas also opened in 1995.[4]

In 1999, Eastview Commons, a shopping center located in the mall's area opened with Target, The Home Depot, Staples, Old Navy and Linens 'n Things (now Best Buy).

In 2000, BJ's Wholesale Club opened south of the mall.

Eastview is located just off New York State Thruway (Interstate 90) Exit 45 on New York State Route 96. This 1,361,325-square-foot (126,471.2 m2) shopping center has 167 stores and services including some that are unique to the Rochester-area market. Eastview has a nationally recognized, quality restaurant selection at the front courtyard parking valet entrance.
