Scotty's was followed by a Region One-format Wal-Mart, which was completed in November 1987. A vacant Key Catalog Showroom became a Burlington Coat Factory in November 1988. With these  modifications, WESTGATE MALL encompassed around 332,500 leasable square feet and housed thirty-one stores. Two department stores were planned for the area indicated as "Future Development." These were never built.

Alas, the late '80s expansion failed to revitalize the shopping hub. It was knocked down in 1994, leaving Wal-Mart standing. A WESTGATE CENTER power plaza was built, with new Burlington Coat Factory, Media Play and Home Depot stores. Its success was short-lived. A more trendy competitor, EISENHOWER CROSSING, came along in 2001 and snatched various WESTGATE stores. By 2007, the complex was virtually vacant.

A WESTGATE logo collection covers the years 1961 to 1995. One might note that the newest entry, for the WESTGATE SHOPPING CENTER, is not a professionally-designed graphic arts trademark. It is just words typed out. This lack of detail became commonplace among developer-owners of power centers. Apparently, everything is thrown together on the cheap, with little -or no- thought or creativity.
