By the early 1970s, LENOX SQUARE was falling behind several newer -and fully-enclosed- malls in its trade area. In June 1972, work commenced on a renovation to enclose and air-condition the Mall Level of the complex. Work was winding down by November 1972, when this ad appeared in the local newspaper.

Along with the mall enclosure project came a third anchor department store. Dallas' trendy Neiman Marcus anchored a new Skylight Mall wing. The store was dedicated in August 1972.
