The CENTER officially became a MALL when a West Wing addition was dedicated, in November 1984. J.C. Penney had been added, along with eighteen inline stores. CAPITAL HILL MALL now housed around 178,800 leasable square feet. By 1987, Hennessy's had expanded into adjacent store space.


In early 2001, the shopping hub embraced the internet, which (via online shopping) would eventually contribute to its demise.

By the time of this circa-2007 layout, CAPITAL HILL MALL was in a downward spiral. Just thirty of its forty-two tenant spaces were leased. Dillard's, who had assumed the Hennessy's spot, would pull up stakes in 3 years.
