That iconic Chicago-based mega retailer opened a LEVITTOWN PLAZA store in February 1964. Among its many features were a Peggy Kellogg Coffee House, lawn & garden center, customer convenience center, catalogue order department and freestanding Auto Center. Above the north-facing entrance was a "modernistic" fiberglass sculpture created by Haverford, Pennsylvania's Henry Peacock.

Pennsylvania's Pomeroy's chain anchored the PLAZA with a 160,000 square foot store. It was officially dedicated in August 1965, at the same time that a new WILLINGBORO PLAZA name was instituted. One of the store's many features was its Burlington Room, an upscale restaurant.
