A Cedar Rapids-based department store anchored the center section of the mall. Killian's East debuted, as part of a preview opening of the shopping complex, in September 1960.

Among the many food vendors at the original LINDALE PLAZA was a Bishop Buffet. Encompassing nearly 13,000 square feet, this smorgasbord-type restaurant was decorated in a Farm Provincial motif.
