Sister center to Don-Mark Realty's SOUTH HILLS VILLAGE, MONROEVILLE MALL
originally encompassed 1,014,800 leasable square feet. An outparcel
convenience center, known as ANNEX SHOPS, housed an additional 110,200
square feet. Free parking was provided for 7,000 autos.
The bulk of MONROEVILLE MALL opened on May 13, 1969. However, the Joseph Horne Company was not dedicated at this time. Its grand opening was held on August 28, as this newspaper ad attests.

By 1978, two of the mall's court areas have been renamed. The Town Square -former West Court- faces Gimbels. The Fountain Court -previous East Court- fronts on Horne's.
