In 1964, MOORESTOWN MALL was populated with tenants typical of a mid-1960s shopping center. These included a 5 & 10, supermarket, cinema and drug store. In all, the mall spanned approximately 750,000 leasable square feet and housed forty-two stores and services. Its parking area had room for 6,000 autos.


The court area in the east end of the complex was known as the Gimbels Atrium. It had splendid flora and fauna. In the center was "The Great Winged One," a fountain sculpture.
