Gimbels and John Wanamaker connected into a 2-level, heated and air-conditioned concourse that was added to the north side of the existing open-air complex. This newly-built section was referred to as the Enclosed Mall.

A small concourse, originally known as the Piccadilly Arcade, was sandwiched between the Penneys and Korvettes stores and provided a connection between the Enclosed and Outdoor Malls. By the early 1970s, this section had been renamed Continental Arcade.
