Euclid Square Mall is a shopping mall in Euclid, Ohio, United States. It was opened in 1977 as a regional mall with two anchor stores: local chains Higbee's, and May Co. It has been a dead mall since the 1990s. ==History== Euclid Square Mall was developed by Jacobs, Visconi & Jacobs; it opened in March 1977 on the site of a former Chase Brass & Copper Co. tubing mill.〔 Originally, the mall comprised more than ninety-two inline tenants, with May Co. and Higbee's as its anchor stores. Higbee's was acquired by Dillard's in 1992. May Co. was consolidated into another division of the parent company, Kaufmann's, a year later. The property at Euclid Square Mall also contains 5 outparcels which included a Toys R Us, Dollar Bank, Stop & Shop, Red Lobster a convenience plaza, and another bank. The Dollar Bank parcel was torn down in 2014. The other 4 outparcels are either vacant or functioning as storage facilities by the current owner. In 1997, expansion plans were announced for a new Kaufmann's to open at Richmond Town Square, another nearby mall. These plans caused rumors that the Kaufmann's at Euclid Square would close, and by 1998, the Kaufmann's at Euclid Square was closed. By late 1997, Zamias Enterprises of Pennsylvania acquired Euclid Square Mall from its then-owners, Metropolitan Life Insurance.〔 〕 Under Zamias' ownership, several redevelopment plans were considered for the mall, including the possibility of converting it into a power centre.〔 Occupancy at the mall began to drop before the mall was sold by Zamias. The Dillard's store was converted to Dillard's Outlet by 2002, the store's upper level was closed off.〔 〕 In early 2004, a collection of outlet vendors known as Outlets USA moved into the former Kaufmann's space. Outlets USA was shuttered in 2006, as the mall's owner thought that the outlet vendors were not "a good blend of merchants and tenants".〔 〕 A proposal was made in late 2006 to include the largely vacant mall property as part of a reconstruction of an abandoned industrial park located nearby.〔 In September 2013 Dillard's Outlet closed when the store's lease ended.〔http://www.news-herald.com/general-news/20130829/dillards-outlet-store-to-close-in-euclid〕 The mall is 632,043 square feet. As of 2013 the building houses 24 churches. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Euclid Square Mall」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
