The Columbia Mall is a shopping mall located in Columbia, Missouri. It was built in 1985[1] and is the largest mall in its area.[2] The mall's anchor stores are Target, JCPenney, Level Up Entertainment, two Dillard's stores, and Barnes & Noble.

Facility

[edit]

The mall's anchors are two Dillard's stores, JCPenney, and Target.[1] The mall also has a US Post Office[3] and a Club Car Wash.[4] It was the 3rd mall in Columbia, after Parkade Plaza in 1965 and Biscayne Mall in 1972.[5] In 2013, an H&M store was announced for the mall.[6][7] In April 2018, Sears Holdings announced the closure of the mall's Sears store in July 2018, which is the company's last store in mid-Missouri.[8] In August 2019, it was announced that a second Dillard's would move into the former Sears building.[9] The store opened on February 22, 2020.[10]

Café Court

[edit]

The mall has a Food Court, known as the Café Court. The Café Court has space for 8 tenants, but only 5 are currently occupied. The restaurants, as of May 2024 are: Stir Fry 88, Subway, Bubble House, Taco John's, and Charleys Philly Steaks.[11] An Auntie Anne's pretzel shop is located near. The Café Court is located near the Barnes & Noble wing, and was remodeled in 2003. It also has a carousel, which was added in the 2003 remodel.

Coronavirus Pandemic

[edit]

The mall was affected by the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020. The retailers struggled with the reopening, after the mall was forced to close.[12] The mall re-opened on May 5, 2020. As an effect of Covid-19, JCPenney went bankrupt, but the Columbia location did not close. Pier 1 Imports shuttered all stores, and closed the Columbia Mall location. Victoria's Secret quit paying rent, and its parent company went bankrupt, closing many stores.[13] Barnes & Noble, Hot Topic, Torrid (clothing retailer), Merle Norman Cosmetics, and J.Jill reopened on May 5, 2020, and Kay Jewelers, Helzberg Diamonds, Victoria's Secret, PINK, Attic Salt, Loft, GameStop, Bath & Body Works, Inc., The White Barn Candle Company, AT&T, and Zale Corporation did not reopen until a later date.
