On December 28, 2018, it was announced that Sears would be closing as part of a plan to close 80 stores nationwide. The store closed in March 2019.[9]
After Sears closed, JoAnn Fabrics, a fabric and craft retailer, remodeled the space and opened a store inside the former Sears. In 2023, JoAnn Fabrics relocated outside the mall and closed in 2025 due to bankruptcy. In 2026, Dave & Buster's announced that they would be opening one of their arcades and restaurants on the site of the former JoAnn Fabrics and Sears. Plans involve demolishing the existing building to build a new 29,000 square foot (2694.2 m²) building on site.[10]
