History

The mall was planned in 1977 to revitalize the city of Redlands. After demolishing some stores and the La Posada hotel, the mall was built in 1977 by The Hahn Company. It offered more than 173,000 square feet of enclosed leasable space and a 12,586-square-foot freestanding retail building.[1] It had two floors and contained a Sav-on Drugs store (which was re-branded to a CVS Pharmacy) and Harris'. During the mid '90s the mall was showing signs of weakness with most popular stores being replaced by independent tenants. In 1998, original tenant Harris' closed being replaced by Gottschalks shortly after since the Harris-Gottschalks acquisition took place that same year. The mall really started struggling in the early 2000s when sales dropped to exceedingly low numbers. After only twelve years as a tenant Gottschalks filed for bankruptcy in 2009 and closed all stores, including the Redlands Mall location. After struggling financially after the closure of Gottschalks, the closure of the mall was announced on September 30, 2010. All leases were terminated.

In July 2014, San Diego-based Brixton Capital LP, the private equity investment vehicle for BruttenGlobal, purchased the mall and announced plans to convert the mall to a mixed-use project with residential and retail development.[1][2]

gollark: In an individual interaction, vengeance is bad, because you're just harming someone even though doing it afterward won't cause them to have not done the thing for which you are taking revenge.
gollark: Which kind of works even if you haven't taken vengeance on *anyone* yet, if people *think* you are likely to.
gollark: As I said, if people know "hmm yes if I do bad things to this person they will have VENGEANCE" they are less likely to do those bad things.
gollark: Or I guess not even in that weird way.
gollark: > vengeance is a vicious cycle and doesn't actually help anyoneAh, but it *does*, acausally speaking in some confusing way.
