History
The mall was opened in 1978 and renovated in 2002.[1] On November 8, 2018, it was announced the Sears store at Stroud Mall would close by February 2019 as part of a plan to close 40 stores nationwide.[2] Sears was also the site of the first escalators in Monroe County when they moved from downtown to the mall in 1995. ShopRite moved into the mall in November 2019 in the former space of The Bon-Ton, replacing the store in downtown Stroudsburg.[3] EFO Furniture Outlet has opened a store in the mall on January 24, 2020, replacing the first floor of Sears.[4]
