Arsenal Mall is a small enclosed shopping mall located in Watertown, Massachusetts. Its anchor stores include The Home Depot, Marshalls, Forever 21, and Old Navy. The mall, managed by Simon Property Group, features 56 stores and a food court.[1]
Filene's Basement, one of the mall's anchors, filed for bankruptcy protection on May 4, 2009. The store closed in 2011 and was converted to Sports Authority.[2]
Located on the site of the former Watertown Arsenal predating the Civil War, the mall opened in 1983[3] as Arsenal Marketplace.[4] Original anchor stores included Marshalls and Ann & Hope. Ann & Hope closed in the early 2000s, and has been replaced by Home Depot and (since closed) Linens 'n Things.[5]
In addition, the mall features a scoreboard from the Boston Garden in its food court.[6]
