History

Boscov's opened before the mall on September 19, 1992, and was the chains first store constructed in Central/Western Pennsylvania.[10] The Johnstown Galleria was built by Zamias Services, Inc. and opened on October 22, 1992 with space for a fifth anchor that was never filled.[2][3][11] It opened with anchors Bon-Ton, Boscov's, J. C. Penney, and Sears.[11] The Boscov's, former Bon-Ton, and former Sears buildings are independently owned.[2][4] Zamias sold the mall to Gemini Real Estate Advisors for $57 million in 2008, but remained as management.[2][12]

Steve & Barry's had a small format store open for a short time at the mall in the late 2000s.[13][14] Adar Johnstown Limited Liability Corporation purchased the property the mall is located on in 2014.[15] Pax Mall Realty settled a tax dispute with Cambria County over the value of the Boscov's anchor in 2017.[16] Bon-Ton closed at the mall in late April 2018 and was the first anchor to close in the Galleria.[17][18] Sears closed in summer 2018.[19][20]

Parking lot and road conditions were reported as poor in March 2019.[21] Spinoso Real Estate Group took over management from Zamias Services, Inc. on February 1, 2020 due to the mall entering receivership.[4] ADAR Johnstown Limited Liability Co., the owner of the malls property, owed $14.6 million and stopped mortgage payments in October 2019.[4][9] The Galleria will go to tax sale on September 14, 2020 due to owing $1.1 million in taxes.[22]
