BROADWAY ORANGE COUNTY CENTER
North Euclid Street and West Crescent Avenue
Anaheim, California

Orange County's first mall-type shopping hub was built on a 45-acre site, situated 25 miles southwest of downtown Los Angeles. The land parcel, located in the northern environs of suburban Anaheim, was adjacent to the Santa Ana Freeway (Interstate 5), which opened to traffic in 1956.

An open-air retail complex was designed by Welton Becket & Associates and completed in stages. It was based on a single retail level with a truck tunnel running underneath. Ground was broken for a 4-level (200,000 square foot), Los Angeles-based The Broadway department store in October 1954. Seventh in the chain, Broadway-Anaheim opened for business -on October 14, 1955- as the first Orange County The Broadway operation. 

Attending the store's official dedication were Edward C. Carter (president of Broadway-Hale Stores, Incorporated), Prentis C. Hale (chairman of the board), US Congressman James Boyd Utt (R) and Charles Pearson (Mayor of Anaheim). Later in the day, screen actress Natalie Wood signed autographs and previewed fashions.

Broadway-Anaheim was joined by a freestanding Convenience Center. This contained a (35,000 square foot) Ralph's supermarket and (15,000 square foot) Sav-On Drugs. Ralph's welcomed its first patrons on October 11, 1956. These three stores, and the prospective shopping center site, were sold to the Prudential Life Insurance Company of America in December 1956. Prudential completed an open-air mall, which was added to the north side of Broadway-Anaheim. 

Silverwoods apparel became one of the first operational BROADWAY ORANGE COUNTY CENTER stores on April 5, 1957. A mall-wide dedication was held on November 18 of the same year. Twelve stores were inaugurated. These included C.H. Baker Shoes, J. Herbert Hall Jewelers, Lerner Shops, Security First National Bank and an F.W. Woolworth 5 & 10. The mall proper encompassed approximately 477,300 leasable square feet. 

The name of the shopping complex had been shortened to BROADWAY CENTER by the time its first expansion got underway, in 1962. A 3-level (170,000 square foot) J.W. Robinson's was built. This was the Los Angeles-based chain's sixth branch and first Orange County location. 

Robinson's Anaheim was officially dedicated on February 19, 1963. A ceremonial ribbon was cut by Mrs. Otis Buckingham, granddaughter of Joseph Winchester Robinson. Features of the store included interior murals and chandeliers and a 2-story high bronze fountain, which stood outside, at one of the store's mall entrances. Said water feature was designed by George Tsutakawa. 

By early 1963, the official name of the shopping complex had been changed again. Now promoted as ANAHEIM CENTER, it incorporated approximately 642,000 leasable square feet. A (28,000 square foot) S.S. Kresge 5 & 10, installed in exiting store space, had opened for business in March 1962.

El Segundo, California's Ernest W. Hahn, Incorporated embarked upon a 4 million dollar mall renovation in 1973. During the project, courts and concourses were roofed-in. A new entry was cut through existing store space, shopping concourses were refurbished and all parking lot store entries sealed-off. 18,000 square feet of retail space was added. 

The newly-enclosed mall, promoted as "a rebirth in retailing," was dedicated on April 10, 1974. New stores included Florsheim Shoes and House of Fabrics. As part of its reinvention, the facility was renamed ANAHEIM PLAZA. Its pre-renovation tenant list of thirty-three stores had been expanded to sixty-five, with its gross leasable area now measuring 740,000 square feet.

Primary competitors were BULLOCK'S FASHION SQUARE (1958) {5.5 miles southeast, in Santa Ana}, ORANGE COUNTY PLAZA (1959) {3.4 miles southwest, in Anaheim}, BUENA PARK MALL (1961) {2.6 miles northwest, in Buena Park} and CITY SHOPPING CENTER (1970) {4.3 miles southeast, in Orange}. These were eventually joined by WESTMINSTER MALL (1974) {7.3 miles southwest, in Westminster} and BREA MALL (1977) {5.8 miles northeast, in Brea}.

A 1-level (80,000 square foot) Mervyn's, added to the east side of ANAHEIM PLAZA, began business om July 9, 1977. This expansion was followed by the opening of a Los Angeles-based Akron store (in a vacated Ralph's supermarket space) in 1983. In October 1984, the mall was sold to a joint venture of the Price Development Company of Salt Lake City and State Teachers Retirement System of Sacramento. The State Teachers Retirement System soon established full ownership.

Commercial competition intensified in the late 1980s, following a renovation of BULLOCK'S FASHION SQUARE (Santa Ana) into MAINPLACE SANTA ANA. On January 23, 1988, the MAINPLACE mall snatched the Robinson's store from ANAHEIM PLAZA.

The State Teachers Retirement System proved to be inept at mall management. They did not renovate the aging shopping hub, which needed to be regularly updated in order to keep up with its many competitors. A remodeling was finally proposed in 1988, which would have installed skylights, a Hall of Banners entryway, two new anchor stores and, possibly, a second retail level. This refurbishment was eventually abandoned.

Newport Beach-based Donahue Schriber was enlisted to conceptualize a total reinvention. A plan was submitted to the Anaheim Redevelopment Agency in November 1991. Under this prospectus, the existing complex would be demalled, using dramatic landscaping and "bold" and "festive" outdoor plazas to create an open-air marketplace.

The existing Mervyn's and The Broadway stores would be joined by an unnamed retailer, who would retenant the vacant Robinson's. This remodeling plan was dealt a blow with the shuttering of The Broadway, on January 31, 1993. There was also considerable opposition from a citizen's group known as Residents For Anaheim Plaza.

Undaunted, Donahue Schriber modified their ANAHEIM PLAZA plan. The mall, including its vacant Broadway and Robinson's buildings, would be bulldozed. Mervyn's was to be left standing, along with three outparcel structures. Demolition of the past-its-prime property commenced in mid-1993. A 30 million dollar reconstruction commenced soon after.

The new ANAHEIM PLAZA was officially dedicated on November 18, 1994. In addition to Mervyn's, the "value-oriented" power center included a (26,000 square foot) CompUSA, (15,900 square foot) Old Navy and (27,200 square foot) Ross Dress For Less. A 1-level (146,000 square foot) Wal-Mart was dedicated on January 28, 1995. It was followed by a Phase II addition, comprised of a (93,000 square foot) Gigante supermarket. This store began business on May 7, 2003.

In October 2006, ANAHEIM PLAZA was acquired by a joint venture of the Newark, New Jersey-based Prudential Insurance Company of America and New Hyde Park, New York-based Kimco Realty. Soon after, CompUSA morphed into a T.J. Maxx and the Gigante supermarket was rebranded as an El Super.

Mervyn's closed in December 2008, with the building being repurposed as a Forever 21. This store was inaugurated on April 3, 2009, but was shuttered in January 2020. Burlington leased a (26,200 square foot) section of the first floor and opened for business on March 31, 2023. Kimco Realty had established 100 percent ownership of ANAHEIM PLAZA in February 2022.

We have assembled a collection of logos used to promote Orange County's first shopping mall over its long history. This BROADWAY ORANGE COUNTY SHOPPING CENTER trademark first appeared in 1957.

The complex was often referred to as simply BROADWAY SHOPPING CENTER. By 1962, this truncated title had been adopted as its official name.

By 1963, the mall moniker had morphed into ANAHEIM CENTER. The complex would often be confused with an entirely different shopping hub known as the EAST ANAHEIM SHOPPING CENTER.

This logo was in use in 1965.

The mall's late 1960s logo is seen above. More confusion would arise when the new Anaheim Convention Center was dedicated in July 1967. This facility was often promoted as Anaheim Center.

When the shopping concourse was enclosed and air-conditioned in the early 1970s, a new name was bestowed. It would be known, henceforth, as ANAHEIM PLAZA.

A new logo was designed in the late '80s. Locals and visitors alike would be confused when another "Anaheim Plaza" appeared in September 1988. The Hyatt Anaheim Hotel, across from Disneyland, was renovated and renamed as the Anaheim Plaza Resort Hotel. This facility was often referred to as the Anaheim Plaza.

Anaheim's Broadway Orange County Center

The first shopping mall in Orange County was added to a freestanding The Broadway department store, which opened in October 1955. The open-air concourse at BROADWAY ORANGE COUNTY CENTER was dedicated in November 1957. Over the years, the complex would be officially promoted as BROADWAY ORANGE COUNTY CENTER, BROADWAY CENTER, ANAHEIM CENTER and ANAHEIM PLAZA.

Broadway-Anaheim was an identical twin of the Broadway-Valley unit in Los Angeles. These 6 million dollar stores encompassed 4 levels and 200,000 square feet. Their interiors were decorated with chestnut paneling, imported silk with antique leaf molding and hand-painted and photo murals. A feature of both stores was their Terrace Room Restaurant & Coffee Shop.

In its early stages, the retail facility covered nearly 500,000 leasable square feet. The mall proper, not counting outparcels, housed thirty-two stores and services. There was free parking for 5,000 autos.

Intense competition, inept management and anchor store defections caused the decline and fall of ANAHEIM PLAZA. By the late 1980s, the shopping center was in dire straits. It was given a wrecking ball renovation in 1993. A first phase power plaza was dedicated in November 1994.

The open-air complex became an enclosed mall in 1973 and was renamed ANAHEIM PLAZA. Mervyn's was officially dedicated in July 1977. With its completion, the gross leasable area of the complex stood at approximately 740,000 leasable square feet, with seventy-five stores under its roof.

BULLOCK'S FASHION SQUARE
North Main Street and West Town and Country Road
Santa Ana, California

Southern California's Bullock's Realty Company selected Orange County for the location of their first FASHION SQUARE shopping center. It would be built in the northern corporate limits of Santa Ana, on a 45-acre parcel. The site was located 31 miles southeast of downtown Los Angeles and was adjacent to the Santa Ana Freeway, which had opened to traffic in 1956.

BULLOCK'S FASHION SQUARE was designed by William Pereira & Charles Luckman, Burke, Kober & Nicolais and H.C. Chambers and Lester Hibbard. The 560,000 square foot complex consisted of eight store blocks, with Bullock's Santa Ana as its anchor. This 4-level (336,000 square foot) department store was the chain's sixth branch.

At its official grand opening, held on September 17, 1958, BULLOCK'S FASHION SQUARE housed thirty-two tenants. These included Harris & Frank, Desmond's, J.J. Haggerty's, See's Candies and a 3-level (30,000 square foot) I. Magnin. There were lushly-landscaped courts and concourses, displaying 400 trees and 10,000 plants. Floral arrangements were replaced four times a year to reflect the changing seasons.

As the FASHION SQUARE was being built, a 240,000 square foot strip center was constructed on an adjacent 16.8-acre site. METCALF PLAZA housed a (40,000 square foot) Food Giant supermarket, (26,500 square foot) S.H. Kress 5 & 10, Sally Shops ladies' wear, Thrifty Drugs, Richman Brothers men's wear and Thom McAn Shoes. Stores opened in early 1959.

Shopping centers within the FASHION SQUARE trade area included BROADWAY ORANGE COUNTY CENTER (1957) {5.5 miles northwest, in Anaheim}, HONER PLAZA (1959) {1.2 miles southwest, also in Santa Ana}, SOUTH COAST PLAZA (1967) {5 miles southwest, in Costa Mesa}, CITY SHOPPING CENTER (1970) {1.2 miles northwest, in Orange} and MALL AT ORANGE (1971) {3.6 miles northeast, in The City Of Orange}.

The Garden Grove Freeway, which passed directly north of the FASHION SQUARE, opened to traffic in 1967. In 1978, a multilevel parking garage, sitting west of I. Magnin, was added. By this time, the complex -promoted as SANTA ANA FASHION SQUARE- was in decline. The venue had operated under three owners since 1958, with the latest being completely uninterested in any type of renovation or expansion.

The City of Santa Ana was desperate to see their city's "minor league" shopping hub brought up to date. A joint venture was formed, consisting of Santa Ana's Community Redevelopment Agency, Chicago's JMB / Federated Realty and an entity known as Santa Ana Venture (a joint venture of the Henry Segerstrom Family and Chase McLaughlin).

"A new downtown for Orange County" was envisaged, which would take the place of the past-its-prime FASHION SQUARE. The MAIN PLACE project was to include a one million square foot shopping galleria, luxury hotel and three office towers...all of these linked by a system of skybridges.

The owner of the property, Chicago's Draper & Kramer, balked at the redevelopment project. They were eventually bought out, at great expense. With this road block removed, demolition of FASHION SQUARE was able to get underway in late 1985.

A 3-level, fully enclosed mall was built, incorporating the existing Bullock's. The northwest parking structure was left standing, with two new parking facilities constructed. I. Magnin closed February 14, 1987. Its building was also left standing and was worked into the newly-built -300 million dollar- facility. The prospective office towers and hotel were dropped from the final plan.

MAINPLACE SANTA ANA was dedicated on September 26, 1987. In addition to Bullock's, the complex included a 3-level (150,500 square foot) Nordstrom and 3-level (142,500 square foot) J.W. Robinson's. The complex also included the 17-bay MainPlace MainCourse Food Court and American Multi-Cinema MainPlace Theatre 6 multiplex. This venue had showed its first features on September 25, 1987.

The first stores in a 182,000 square foot North Wing were dedicated on November 1, 1990,. A 3-level (150,000 square foot) May Company California opened its doors in May 1991. The shopping center now encompassed approximately 1,158,000 leasable square feet and housed one hundred and ninety-five stores and services under its roof.

Anchor rebrandings occurred later in the decade. May Company and J.W. Robinson's came under the Robinsons-May nameplate January 31, 1993. The old May Company morphed into Robinsons-May North (Women's & Children's) with the former Robinson's re-opening as Robinsons-May South (Men's & Furniture). Bullock's was "Macy-ated" on May 1, 1996.

By the year 2000, MAINPLACE SANTA ANA was owned by the North American subsidiary of Rotterdam, Holland-based Rodamco. Australia's Westfield acquired fourteen Rodamco malls in May 2002, including the MAINPLACE property. It was immediately renamed WESTFIELD SHOPPINGTOWN MAINPLACE, which was shortened to WESTFIELD MAINPLACE in June 2005.

More changes occurred during 2006 and 2007. The 6-plex cinema had closed and re-opened under new management during 1999. It closed and re-opened -with new management- on October 20, 2006. It was now promoted as Picture Show at MainPlace.

The Robinsons-May South store became a Macy's Men's & Home late in the year. The Robinsons-May North operation closed and was sold to Westfield. It re-opened, as a J.C. Penney, on March 4, 2007. Los Angeles-based Forever 21 relocated into the lower level of the old I. Magnin space in November 2007, establishing a (21,000 square foot) XXI Forever store.

The main MAINPLACE Macy's (in the old Bullock's) was renovated during 2012, with retail area expanded into old office and storage space. New mattress and men's wear departments were installed. The Macy's Men's & Home store was shuttered, with its merchandise incorporated into the main Macy's store.

In August 2014, Westfield announced a 50 million dollar MAINPLACE makeover. The vacant Macy's Men's & Home would be divided between seven tenants; the largest of these being Ashley Homestore, 24 Hour Fitness and a Round 1 Bowling & Amusement Center.

Ashley Homestore became the first new tenant to open, on November 14, 2014. It was followed by 24 hour Fitness and Round One, which were dedicated in mid-2015. Four sit-down restaurants were also installed as part of the renovation. These were Panni Cafe, DXL, Lucille's Smokehouse Bar-B-Que and Wokcano.

A Restaurant Row, adjacent to J.C. Penney, featured Boudin SF Bakery and Johnny Rockets. Beneath the existing Dining Court, the Westside Dining area included Blaze Pizza, Starbucks Coffee and Dog Haus.

A consortium of San Antonio's USAA Real Estate, Dallas' Centennial Real Estate and San Francisco's Montgomery Street Partners bought the shopping center in December 2015. Its official name was changed to MAINPLACE MALL soon after.

Nordstrom shuttered their MAINPLACE MALL store on March 17, 2017. The mall's proprietor plans to repurpose the vacant building with several tenant spaces, in a move similar to the Macy's Men's store redevelopment.

KARCHER MALL
Caldwell Boulevard and West Karcher Road
Nampa, Idaho

Plans for the Spud State's first shopping mall were announced in August 1964. The complex would be built on a 34.9-acre tract. This was located 19 miles west of downtown Boise ["boy-see"], in the suburb of Nampa. KARCHER MALL was built by the Nampa-based Daum Development Corporation.  

The original shopping hub was a single-level, fully-enclosed structure, which encompassed approximately 103,000 leasable square feet. Its first tenants, Kinney Shoes, the Karcher Mall Barber Shop and a (34,000 square foot) Buttrey Foods grocery, opened for business on August 26, 1965. Four additional stores and services were dedicated on September 15; Andre's Beauty Salon & Sauna, Anne's Flowers, a Sprouse-Reitz 5 & 10 and (30,000 square foot) Tempo Discount Center.

Construction commenced on a Phase I southward addition on March 8, 1967. This 2.9 million dollar project expanded the existing mall southward. New stores included Irene's Fashions, Singer Sewing Center, Skagg's Drug Center and the Boise-based ID Store. The centerpiece of the renovation was a 2-level (140,000 square foot) J.C. Penney. This store was dedicated -along with the new South Wing- on October 23, 1968. The ribbon cutting ceremony was attended by Harry Daum, the mall's developer. Mayors of the cities of Caldwell and Nampa were also in attendance, as was Karen Ryder, "Miss Idaho 1969."

In late 1969, the mall's discount variety store was rebranded as a Rasco Tempo. A Phase II southward expansion was announced on July 26, 1972. Work got underway in January 1973. This project would add a  1-level (60,000 square foot) Seattle-based The Bon Marche the Virgil O'Dell Red & Blue Twin Cinemas and nineteen new inline stores. 

The expanded South Wing opened for business on August 3, 1973. KARCHER MALL now encompassed approximately 600,000 leasable square feet and housed fifty stores and services. One of these went dark in March 1976. A vacant Rasco Tempo was replaced by an F.W. Woolworth 5 & 10.

KARCHER MALL encountered its first bona fide competitor in October 1988. BOISE TOWN SQUARE {15.8 miles east, in Boise} snatched J.C. Penney, the primary anchor of KARCHER, along with several inline stores. To add insult to injury, BOISE TOWN SQUARE was expanded, to 1,170,000 square feet, with additions in 1998 and 2000.

KARCHER MALL persevered. In 1989, the first level of the old Penney's had been leased to Eugene, Oregon-based Troutman's Emporium (a.k.a. "The Emporium"). By 1993, KARCHER MALL housed stores such as The Hub Clothing (in the ID store space), PayLess Drug (in the Skagg's space) and Sears Catalog & Appliance.

Unfortunately, the shopping center was in foreclosure by the mid-1990s. It was bought and sold several times, with a major renovation done in 1998. This 10 million dollar project included the installation of an upper level Food Court and new Main Entrance. Empty retail spaces were leased. Intermountain Sports replaced Woolworth's, with Jo-Ann Fabrics assuming the PayLess Drug space. Big 5 Sporting Goods set up shop in the North Wing.

KARCHER MALL lost Troutman's Emporium in February 2003. Pleasanton, California-based Ross Dress For Less leased the old Buttrey Foods location in 2004 . The mall's west anchor was rebannered as a Bon-Macy's on August 1, 2003, and was fully "Macy-ated" on March 6, 2005.

The shopping hub changed hands four more times. Anaheim, California's Milan Properties began a refurbishment in 2008. A more ambitious remodeling, which had been proposed by the previous owners, was scrapped. Milan's scaled-down renovation concentrated on a face lift of the interior, remodeling of entrances and painting the exterior. The 14 million dollar project was completed in the spring of 2009. As part of the refurbishment, new Burlington Coat Factory and Steve & Barry's University Sportswear stores had opened. Unfortunately, Steve & Barry's went bust after only 11 months.

The cinema space, which had operated as the Karcher Reel Theatre until February 2000, re-opened, as the Northern Lights Cinema Grill, in September 2009. The primary Macy's had been shuttered on October 14 of the same year. Macy's had moved to the new open-air NAMPA GATEWAY CENTER {4.3 miles east, in Canyon County}. A KARCHER MALL Macy's Clearance Center remained intact, for a time.

Meanwhile, a third commercial competitor came on the scene. The TREASURE VALLEY MARKETPLACE power center {.7 mile northeast, in Nampa} opened for business in August 2010. The Macy's Clearance Center at KARCHER MALL was finally shuttered in July 2014. The standard Macy's store morphed into a Mor Furniture For Less in June 2016. The Burlington store went dark in September 2018.

Livermore, California's Rhino Investments bought KARCHER MALL in May 2019. A 30 million dollar demalling was soon proposed. An 81,000 square foot section of the South Wing would be demolished and the enclosed shopping concourse converted into inline store space. 

A revitalized power center, known -at first- as KARCHER MARKETPLACE, would include 216 residential units. A photo-op groundbreaking was held in November 2019, with demolition on the South Wing getting underway soon after. The official name of the shopping complex was eventually changed to DISTRICT 208.

We've been told that the White Front name was derived from the sight of several all-white appliances lined up in front of the very first store. This opened, in the Florence district of Los Angeles, in 1929. The snapshot above, taken in a late 1960s White Front store, shows an anything-but-white line of stoves. The popular appliance shades of the day were avocado green, coppertone and harvest gold.

In this snapshot, we see the storefront of Newport Children's Bootery. Back in the day, it was common for a shoe store to be named a "bootery."

The 909,000 square foot FASHION ISLAND was built on property that had been under consideration for the original Disneyland (which was eventually built in Anaheim). The mall's store blocks were arranged in a stair-step fashion; this to relieve the monotony of an straight linear layout. At its formal dedication, the shopping center featured fifty-six stores and services. Free parking was provided for 5,500 autos.
