Eagle Ridge Mall is a regional, enclosed shopping mall located on the north side of Lake Wales, Florida, United States. It has only one anchor store: Dillard's. It also has an Escape Room X, a Regal Cinemas which has twelve theatres, and Lake Wales Bowling, a large entertainment center, which contains a bowling alley, a large video arcade, a restaurant and meeting rooms. On the north side of the mall is a large food court and a carousel. Sears relocated from the Winter Haven Mall, in nearby Winter Haven.[1]

History

In June 1998, a large sinkhole appeared in the children's play area, in the central pedestrian traffic corridor of the mall. This hole measured Шаблон:Convert across and Шаблон:Convert deep. While efforts to stabilize and fix this sinkhole were underway, a second sinkhole developed in the Sears store. These were stabilized and all areas of the mall were reopened. The publication of American Society of Civil Engineers in October 1999 contained a study detailing how these sinkholes were fixed.[2][3]

In 2000, Belk had proposed to relocate to the mall from Northgate Shopping Center in Winter Haven, but instead built a store on the site of the former Winter Haven Mall after it was torn down.[4]

In April 2009, the company which then owned Eagle Ridge Mall filed for chapter 11 bankruptcy. General Growth Properties, Inc., the mall's owner, owned 358 malls and shopping centers in forty-four states. This at the time was said to be the largest real estate bankruptcy in United States history.[5] It was sold to Madison Marquette, and again in 2013 to Tabani Group.[6] Sears announced closure of the Eagle Ridge Mall store in late 2016.[7]

In January 2018, two signal flares were ignited in the mall. The flares caused a large amount of smoke but no injuries were reported.[8]

On June 4, 2020, JCPenney announced that it would be closing by around October 2020 as part of a plan to close 154 stores nationwide.[9] After JCPenney closed, Dillard's became the one and only anchor store left.
