When THE MALL opened in the late 1960s, its generic name could suffice. However, by the early '80s, there were four interior malls in Anchorage. To differentiate itself, Alaska's original enclosed shopping center was renamed MALL AT SEARS. Zooming through time to the early 2000s, we see contemporary MALL AT SEARS signage. This display stood along Anchorage's East Northern Lights Boulevard.

MALL AT SEARS was renovated between March and June of 2011. In this snapshot, we see a newly-created South Entrance, which faces East Benson Boulevard. The SteamDot Coffee and BurgerFi stores opened in 2013 and 2016, respectively.
