Richardson Square Mall

Richardson Square Mall was an enclosed single-level shopping center located in Richardson, Texas on Plano Road, stretching between the intersections of Belt Line Road and Spring Valley Road, that was in business from 1977 to 2006. The mall attached to an existing Sears, which served as one of four anchor stores. Two anchors, including Sears, were single-level, while the others were two level. The mall was popular and fully leased throughout the 1980s. It fell into decline in the early 1990s, with a large percentage of stores unoccupied by 1993. The mall was remodeled in 1998 with a food court and the spaces of many individual stores stores combined into larger retailers such as Barnes & Noble and Stein Mart. Beginning with Montgomery Ward's bankruptcy in 2001, retailers began abandoning the mall, with some relocating to Firewheel Town Center in nearby Garland. Richardson Square Mall closed in 2006 and was demolished in 2007. It was replaced in 2008 by an outdoor retail center with the abbreviated name Richardson Square. The Sears became part of Richardson Square and remained in operation until in 2019.
