Since there is no page about this mall I go to alot, I'll start the discussion.

This mall was built in 1968 by The Korman company with the folling main anchors:

  • Sears, Roebuck & Compasny
  • STRAWBRIDGE & CLOTHIER
and the minor anchors were:

  • F. W. Woolworth
  • Pathmark Supermarket
  • Premiere Theatre

In 1974, the first addition to the mall was added with a 3rd anchor: Lit Brothers.  In 1977, Lits was shuttered, and Pomeroy's was added.   The Bon-Ton acquired Pomeroy's in 1987, and renamed the store in 1990.  This The Bon Ton closed in 1992/1993, and in 1995 reopened as Boscov's.

The Premiere Theatre was acquired by AMC Theatres in the late 1970's, twinned and closed in 1992/93.  woolworth closed in 1996 when the entire chain was shuttered by its parent compay, woolworth corp, now known as Foot Locker Inc.

The AMC Neshaminy 24 Theatre opened 1998.  S&C became Macy's in 2006.
