Upon its completion in 1972, EASTERN HILLS was the largest mall in -or around- Buffalo. The single-level complex housed over 1 million leasable square feet and contained seventy-five stores. Its four anchors were J.C. Penney, Adam, Meldrum & Anderson (a.k.a. AM&A's), Sears and the aforementioned Hengerer's. Free parking was provided for 6,000 autos.

The first major renovation was done in 1987. The Treats Food Court, depicted in this rendering, was added to the southeast corner of the mall.

At the time of a circa-1987 site plan, Rochester-based Sibley's is operating in the Hengerer's space. The new Treats Food Court is shown in gray. 

We zoom through time to an early 2000s layout. The shopping hub houses eighty-five stores. Sibley's morphed into a Kaufmann's and AM&A's into The Bon Ton. Burlington Coat Factory, which assumed the Jenss space in late 1998, has just closed for good. The Woolworth section housed a Waccamaw's HomePlace for 3 years. That space has been vacant since early 1998.
