History
Homart Development Company built Newgate Mall in 1981. Its original anchor stores were Sears and Mervyn's. Sears had operated a store on the site prior to the mall opening, but moved to a new location upon construction of the mall while selling their previous location to Mervyn's.[2] The mall was built by Homart Development Company, then a shopping mall development company owned by Sears.[3]
Among its tenants was the first Chick-fil-A in Utah.[4] Phar-Mor was added in February 1992,[5] but closed only seven months later.[6]
In 1994, Dillard's opened its second Utah store at the mall.[7] Between then and 1995, over 100,000 square feet (9,300 m2) of retail space was added, including Victoria's Secret, Lane Bryant, Bath & Body Works, Express, Inc., Famous Footwear, B. Dalton, and Applebee's.[8] Another new tenant in this timespan was a larger location for Quilted Bear, a consignment shop that had previously occupied a smaller store within.[9]
A year later, the former Phar-Mor became the first Oshman's in Utah.[10] The store became Gart Sports in 2001,[11] Sports Authority in 2006, and DownEast Home & Clothing in 2016.[12] A 14 screen Cinemark "Tinseltown USA" movie theater was opened in 1998 to replace the mall's aging 4 screen cinema.[13] Although Newgate Mall initially struggled with high vacancy, the mall's occupancy was boosted in the 2000s, particularly after Ogden City Mall (now The Junction) closed.[14] Mervyn's closed in 2008 and in 2013 became Burlington Coat Factory which now goes by just Burlington.[15] Sears closed in April 2018.[16] Burlington closed in 2025.
