History

The mall opened as Osceola Square Mall in 1985. One of its original anchor stores was a 82,000-square-foot (7,600 m2) Walmart.[3] Other major tenants upon opening included Ross Dress for Less, J. Byrons (later Uptons), Morrison's Cafeteria, and Eckerd Corporation.[4]

In 1996, Walmart moved out of the mall in favor of a Supercenter further down U.S. Route 192.[5] One year later the former Walmart became a Bealls department store.[6]

In 2014, the mall received a Latino-themed makeover and was renamed to Plaza del Sol.[7]
