SouthPark Mall is the name of the shopping mall located in Moline, Illinois. As Moline is part of the Quad Cities of Illinois and Iowa, the mall services part of the population of these cities. The mall is located southwest of the intersection of Interstate 74 and Illinois Route 5 (John Deere Road) at 4500 16th Street. SouthPark Mall is one of two regional malls in the Quad Cities area, the other being NorthPark Mall in Davenport, Iowa.
The mall has been operated by the Simon Property Group, Inc., since 1998. Dillard's, JCPenney, Sears, Von Maur, and Younkers are the five anchor stores for this mall. The one-level mall has over 100 stores and a gross leasable area of 1,026,000 square feet (95,319 m²). [1]
[edit] History
SouthPark Mall was built by General Growth Properties at a cost of $12 million on 47 acres (190,000 m²) of land that General Growth purchased in 1966. Montgomery Ward, Petersen Harned Von Maur, and Younkers were the mall's three original anchors when it opened on February 27, 1974. SouthPark has been expanded twice: JCPenney was added in 1978, while Sears and a food court were added in 1990. Montgomery Ward closed in early 2001 when the chain went out of business, and the anchor space remained vacant for three years. Dillard's eventually leased the space, and they rebuilt the space, which they then opened in 2004.
