History [edit]
Gurnee Mills was initially owned by Mills Corporation. In 2007, the Simon Property Group acquired the Mills Corporation. In April 2010, plans for a $5 million renovation were announced. The renovations are expected to take up to 3 years to be completed.[3] Some parts of the rehab have been delayed, but new retailers continue to open.[4] As of May 24, 2011 Macy's was announced to be opening in the mall, on the former site of the Circuit City store sometime in 2013.[5]
