History

Concord Mall opened in August 1972, anchored by Montgomery Ward and Robertson's, a division of Gamble-Skogmo.[2] J. C. Penney was added as a third anchor in 1976.[3] After Robertson's closed their location in 1985, Meis opened in the space later that year. The Meis store was sold to Elder-Beerman in 1989, which was re-branded as Carson's in 2011.[4] After Montgomery Ward closed, its building was split between Hobby Lobby (which opened in 2002)[5][6] and ABC Warehouse. In 2008, a space vacated by Osco Drug was renovated into a food court.[7] On January 31, 2018 Carson's Parent company Bon-Ton announced they would be closing the Concord Mall location with 42 other stores.[8]
