Plaza Rio Hondo is a shopping mall in Bayamón, Puerto Rico. It opened in 1982 and is anchored by Marshalls Megastore, Caribbean Cinemas, TJ Maxx, and Best Buy, with one vacant anchor spot last occupied by a Kmart.
History
The mall's original anchors included Woolworth, which closed in 1997 and was split between Marshalls and Tiendas Capri.[1]
In 2004, Marshalls moved from its existing store at the mall to a Megastore at the other end. The original Marshalls became a flagship store for CompUSA,[2] which closed in 2008 and became Best Buy. A year later, Developers Diversified Realty (now SITE Centers) bought the mall.[3] TJ Maxx replaced Tiendas Capri in 2011.[4]
Ownership partnered with textiles retailer Anna's Linens to open stores at Rio Hondo and other malls in Puerto Rico in 2012.[5]
In 2014, ownership announced a full remodel of the mall.[6]
On November 6, 2019, it was announced that the Kmart would be closing in February 2020.
