History

Old Navy joined the mall in 2006,[5] and closed six years later.[6] The mall's movie theater, formerly owned by Carmike Cinemas, was sold to Golden Star Theaters in 2015.[7] On June 6, 2017, Sears Holdings announced that the Kmart store would be closing as part of a plan to close 72 stores nationwide. It closed in October 2017. Kmart was expanded in 1992. On November 2, 2017, Sears Holdings announced that the Sears store would also be closing as part of a plan to close 63 stores nationwide. The store closed in January 2018. Four months later, The Bon-Ton announced that it would close its location here as part of the storewide liquidations due to bankruptcy. Kohl's joined the mall in 2019, taking over the vacant Sears space.[8]

Indiana Mall was turned over to the bank by Zamias in December 2020. Zamias remained as mall management. Dunham's Sports was also announced to replace the former Bon-Ton.[9] Indiana Mall was sold to the Kohan Retail Investment Group in April 2022 for $6.9 million.[4] [10]
