Arrowhead Mall is an enclosed shopping mall in Muskogee, Oklahoma. It was opened in 1987 and was owned by J.

History

Arrowhead Mall was built in 1987 in the downtown district of Muskogee.[3] There are currently three anchor stores in the mall: Dillard's, JCPenney and Stage. There is a fourth anchor store which was Sears that closed in November 2014.

In 2005, J. Herzog bought the mall from its original owner, Warmack & Company.[4]

In April 10, 2010, a deadly shooting broke out at the Arrowhead Mall injuring at least five people and leaving one dead; witnesses say that the shooting was gang related.[5]

J. Herzog updated the mall throughout 2014, removing the old play area and adding more seating in the food court, free wi-fi, and a Justice clothing store.[6] Sears announced the closure of its Muskogee store in August 2014.[7]

On June 4, 2020, it was announced that JCPenney will be closing around October 2020 as part of a plan to close 154 stores nationwide. After JCPenney closes, Dillard's and Stage will be the only anchor stores left.
