The GOLF MILL mall was sold to a Floridian concern in 2014. Within a few years, the shopping complex was in decline. The closing of Sears, in late 2018, sealed the mall's fate. It would be partially demolished and replaced by a mixed-use facility known as GOLF MILL TOWN CENTER.

The new and improved TOWN CENTER would incorporate shopping, office, residential and hospitality components. The abandoned Sears, and 9-story Professional Building, would be knocked down. New construction would include a reproduction of the water wheel that had been a feature of the original mall.
