Welcome to the largest mall and retail history site on the internet!


A keeping up with THE CORNERS renovation reworked the east facade of Sears, adding more Streetscape-type retail and restaurants. The project, which increased the mall's gross leasable area by 19,000 square feet, was completed in late 2015.

The 50-year-old BROOKFIELD SQUARE Sears went dark in March 2018. The building was knocked down, leaving its adjacent Streetscape section intact. This was worked into a new South Wing, which included new retail, restaurants, an 8-plex dine-in cinema and an entertainment and bowling center. With these improvements, the mall covered approximately 1,078,900 leasable square feet.

A circa-2021 layout shows recent mall modifications. In addition to a reconfigured South Wing, a Hilton hotel has been built. The Boston Store, on the north end of the mall, went dark in August 2018.


The vacant Boston Store was sold to Milwaukee-based Irgens Partners in  2019. They demolished the building in early 2024. It is being replaced with the Brookfield Public Market, a mixed-use restaurant, retail and office facility.
