Our first BELLA TERRA site plan is dated 2007. Structures held over from the old HUNTINGTON BEACH MALL are indicated in black. Two anchor stores, Mervyn's and Burlington Coat Factory, had been recycled. Montgomery Ward (?) would sit vacant -and decaying- for several years before finally being demolished.

In a more recent layout, we see modifications done to BELLA TERRA between 2010 and 2014. Mervyn's was razed and replaced by Costco. The pesky abandoned Montgomery Ward was bulldozed in late 2010. It was replaced by THE VILLAGE AT BELLA TERRA, an "upscale mixed-use" residential and retail development.
