Uniontown Mall is a regional enclosed shopping mall in South Union Township, Pennsylvania, just outside the city of Uniontown. The anchor stores are JCPenney, and Crossfit Uniontown. There are four vacant anchor stores that were once The Bon-Ton, Sears and Burlington Coat Factory, as well as AMC Theatres, which departed abruptly in mid 2021.
History
[edit]The one-story Uniontown Mall was developed by Crown American and opened in 1972. Sears and Gee Bee were the mall's original anchor stores.[2] A Bon-Ton store opened at the mall in 1975, and JCPenney and Hess's followed later. In 1992, the Gee Bee store became Value City. A five-bay food court was located between Bon-Ton and Value City, although it would be shuttered by the early 1990s and repurposed into mall space.
In 1999, the Hess's store closed and was eventually divided between a Timeless Traditions furniture store and a branch of TeleTech (TTEC), which specializes in providing customer service and telemarketing for various businesses. In 2003, the property was acquired by PREIT as part of its acquisition of the malls owned by Crown American. In 2007, Value City closed but later became Burlington Coat Factory.[citation needed]
By 2008, it had four anchor tenants – Burlington Coat Factory, JCPenney, Sears, and the Bon-Ton – but in a few years, the mall would see multiple closures.[citation needed]
In January 2015, PREIT announced plans to sell the Uniontown Mall, along with four other malls. The mall's sale to Mason Asset Management and Namdar Realty Group was completed in August 2015.[3]
In March 2017, Sears closed followed by The Bon-Ton closing in August 2018. In January 2019, Burlington announced to not renew their lease. Two other major tenants, Dunham's Sports and Timeless Traditions Furniture, closed in January 2019. Timeless Traditions Furniture moved to a nearby building that was formerly a Super Kmart.[citation needed] In mid 2021, AMC Theatres abruptly closed and currently remains vacant as of August 2021.[citation needed]
