History
The mall opened on October 13, 1982 with JCPenney, Sears, and Target, followed by The Bon Marché in early 1983. The Bon Marché was converted to Macy's in 2005.[2][3][4]
In 2014, Hibachi Sushi and Supreme Buffet opened at the mall.[5]

On October 15, 2018, it was announced that Sears would be closing as part of a plan to close 142 stores nationwide. The store closed in late December 2018. This was the last full-line Sears left in Wyoming.[7]
