The mall was renovated and expanded northward in 1983-'84. A freestanding Thriftway Food & Drug was built. The original in-mall store was reconfigured as The Village of Beechmont, with nineteen boutiques and bistros. A Gold Circle discount mart was also added to the complex. Moreover, McAlpins and Shillito's were rebranded in 1978 and 1982, respectively. 

As part of the 1983-'84 redo, each mall entrance was rebuilt with a 4-section Omni Hub Space Frame.

By the time of a 1997 site plan, the two original anchor stores have been rebranded again. Gold Circle has gone through two nameplate changes before ending up as the Big Kmart depicted here. Competition from EASTGATE MALL and KENWOOD TOWNE CENTRE have sent BEECHMONT MALL into a downward spiral. Only a demalling will stop its decline.
