History
[edit]The mall opened in 1971 under the development of Edward J. DeBartolo, Sr. (whose company is now part of Simon Property Group), with Sears, Woolworth, JCPenney, and Quality Markets as its anchor stores.[2] JCPenney vacated its store in 1986, which was later mostly converted to Jamesway that same year.[3] (The remaining space was converted to Present Company). This new Jamesway store, the 100th in the chain, was a replacement for the first store in the Jamesway chain, located in nearby Jamestown.[4]
Jamesway and Woolworth closed in 1993,[5] and Quality Markets moved outside the mall.[6] In 1997, JCPenney returned to the mall in the portion of the former Jamesway space, while the former Woolworth store was expanded to become a 60,000-square-foot (5,600 m2) Bon-Ton.[7] The remainder of the former Jamesway space later became OfficeMax. Several new stores were also added, including Old Navy, Gap/GapKids, Spencer Gifts, new locations for Electronics Boutique and Hallmark Cards,[8] and a food court.[9] The food court closed in 1999 due to the original owner of its vendors withdrawing from the mall, but it reopened that same year with Orange Julius, Hot Stuff Pizza, and Mean Gene's Burgers.[10] All of the restaurants closed by 2002, but the food court soon reopened again with local tenants and a Subway.[11]
In 2013, an Olive Garden restaurant opened in front of the mall.[12] The Bon-Ton closed on August 29, 2018. On February 19, 2021, it was announced that Ollie's Bargain Outlet would open.[13]
In 2022, Kohan Retail Investment Group would become the new owners of Chautauqua Mall
