Somersville Towne Center is the only enclosed regional mall in east Contra Costa County.[4] The mall is anchored by Macy's and Sears.[1][4]
History
County East Mall was opened in 1966 as an open-air mall with Sears, Mervyns, and W. T. Grant as the original anchor tenants.[6] In the mid-1970s, JCPenney replaced Grant's as the mall's third anchor. A major overhaul in the late-1980s transformed the mall into an enclosed shopping center with Gottschalks added as a fourth anchor tenant.[6] JCPenney closed on January 25, 1997,[7] and was occupied for several years by a furniture retailer until the Lua error in Module:Convert at line 1851: attempt to index local 'en_value' (a nil value). building was gutted in 2003 and replaced by the larger Macy's anchor in 2004.[8][9] Further expansion brought in Marshalls as a fifth anchor in March 2008.[10] In August 2008, Mervyns announced it would close several underperforming stores, including the Somersville Towne Center location.[11] Gottschalks closed in 2009, leaving two anchors vacant at the mall. In late 2012, it was announced that a trampoline park was slated to take a portion of the former Gottschalks.[12]
Renovations
A major overhaul completed in 1989 transformed County East Mall from an open-air shopping mall to an enclosed shopping center.[13] The mall's most recent renovation was in 2004, including the opening of the Macy's anchor tenant in a new two-story building and a cosmetic makeover of the mall's interior.[14] The new construction and makeover, which included new paint, new landscaping, new flooring, and improvements to the mall's entrances, cost a reported US$20 million.[9] The mall also changed names from County East Mall to Somersville Towne Center at this time.[6]
In 2013, Factory 2-U opened a Fallas Paredes store in the former Mervyns.[15] A year later, the mall was sold by Macerich to Time Equities, with Spinoso Group as leasing agent.[16]
In 2015, Smart & Final opened up in the mall as a replacement for Marshalls, which closed in 2013.
