Renovations done between 2002 and 2007 reduced the size of the mall by 90,000 square feet. At the same time, a bank and several sit-down restaurants (light gray) were added to the front parking area.

The mall's front-facing facade was given an extensive renovation as the new Target was being constructed. The new Main Entrance, depicted here, was completed in March 2013.

More modifications were completed in the 2010s. The Food Court was rebuilt as inline stores. Sears reduced its footprint, with its ground level divided between four tenants. The Sears Auto Center was converted to an REI (Recreational Equipment International) store. The downsized Sears, which encompassed 127,300 square feet, would close for good in late 2018.

By the 2020s, PEMBROKE MALL was on life support. A 200 million dollar redevelopment was drawn up to reconfigure the complex as a retail-hospitality-senior living facility. Sections of the mall would be left standing, with fifteen stores remaining. In January 2022, concourses were shuttered. In May, the name of the project was changed to PEMBROKE SQUARE (which had been the tentative name of the mall in the early '60s).
