City View Center
Garfield Heights, United States
City View Center was a power center in Garfield Heights, Ohio, east of Cleveland. Positioned to be a regional shopping destination with stores such as Walmart, Giant Eagle, Dick's Sporting Goods and Bed Bath & Beyond, the development intended to increase Garfield Heights' commercial base soon developed into a modern dead mall, being built on landfill which soon liquified and caused damage to its buildings, along with fears of methane gas remaining unvented beneath the site which then caused multiple stores to close and abandon the center. A second phase that would have included The Home Depot, Panera, Chick-fil-A and Buffalo Wild Wings was never built, with those retailers fearing a redux of Phase I of the development. The shopping center underwent redevelopment, completing the process by 2021.
