History

The mall opened in 1995 with Dillard's, JCPenney, Sears, Burdines,, and Parisian. Following that store's closure in 2010, the space is now Burlington and Dick's Sporting Goods since 2012. Dillard's also opened a store at Pembroke Lakes Mall by the time of the mall's opening, while Parisian opened another Florida store at The Avenues a year before. Ivey's and Maison Blanche have also signed as anchors. However, Dillard's purchased Ivey's and Maison Blanche was taken over by Gayfers, which never opened there. This created an available anchor pad that never came into fruition.
On May 8, 2009, Orlando Business Journal reported the coming addition of a H&M store, which was the second in Florida, with the first being at The Florida Mall. Additionally, Sears closed the lower level of its anchor store at the center in 2012 and that space is yet to be filled. Simon sold the mall to Washington Prime Group in May 2014. In 2015, of retail space near Macy's was cleared and converted into an Athletic Apex health club, which opened in 2016.
On May 31, 2018, Sears announced that its store would be closing as part of a plan to close 63 stores nationwide. The store closed on September 2, 2018. On January 7, 2020, it was announced that Macy's would be closing in April 2020 as a part of a plan to close 125 stores nationwide. Washington Prime Group transferred the mall's ownership to Kohan Retail Investment Group in March 2020.
