The shopping hub was extended northward in 1965-'66, with two store blocks (in medium gray) built. These housed new Duff & Repp home furnishings and Kline's stores. Sears was completed in 1973. ANTIOCH CENTER now spanned approximately 700,000 leasable square feet and contained 113 stores and offices within its -still- open-air canopies.

 

A strip-type shopping venue was developed on a site northwest of the mall. The first phase of the ANTIOCH CENTER ANNEX was dedicated in March 1967. The single-screen, Commonwealth Theatres Antioch Theatre opened at this time. A second stage of stores (in light gray) debuted in July 1972.

The open courts and concourses at ANTIOCH CENTER were enclosed and climate-controlled between September 1978 and October 1979. During the renovation, the mall store count increased from 114 to 123. As a facet of the roofing renovation, the logo seen above was introduced.
