Sangertown Square is a shopping mall located in New Hartford, New York between New York State Route 5 and New York State Route 8 near Utica, New York. Sangertown Square is a single-story mall, and comprises 869,758 sq ft (80,803 m2) of leasable retail space. The mall was built in 1980 and has a central food court and 50 stores. The mall features the traditional retailers Boscov's, Dick's Sporting Goods, HomeGoods, and Target while featuring the prominent specialty retailers American Eagle, Bath and Body Works, Charlotte Russe, Hollister, and Victoria's Secret.[2]

History

The mall opened in 1980 with Hess's, JCPenney, Sears, and Bradlees. Storied regional division Hess's became Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania-based Kaufmann's in 1994. Bradlees shuttered in around 2001 which was razed and replaced with a Target store by 2002.[3] Kaufmann's transitioned into a Macy's in September 2006.

In 2009, Circuit City shuttered becoming a HomeGoods.

In September 2012, DSW opened as a junior anchor within the shopping concourse.

In 2014, a two-year refresh modernizing Sangertown Square was announced which includes new seating, decorative lighting, new tile, exterior entrances, and an improved landscape.

In 2015, it was announced Boscov's will replace Sears which would then shutter as part of an ongoing decision to phase out of their traditional brick-and-mortar format.[4]

The early 2020's saw several storied traditional department store retailers update their traditional brick-and-mortar formats after being enroached to a degree by several digital retailers in recent years.

On June 4, 2020, JCPenney announced that as part of modernizing their traditional brick-and-mortar base that they'll no longer continue to position an outpost in this retail environment.[5]

On January 6, 2021, Macy's, which also maintains several much larger outposts over by Albany and Syracuse, also announced that as part of a strategy to solely focus on their highest achieving locations that they have also selected against staying on at this predominant regional shopping center.[6]

Several potential replacement tenants for each space are each reportedly in the midst of early on discussions.[7] By October 2022, after the recent COVID-19 shut down, Sangertown Square had announced several newest additions, the fine jewelery traditional brand Ashcroft & Oak, an outpost for bohemian clothing retailer Earthbound Trading Co., Journeys, Blue Sox Academy, and axe throwing at PiNZ social.
