History
Southpark Mall first opened in 1989.
In 1993, the area surrounding the mall was damaged during the Virginia tornado outbreak. The Wal-Mart in the mall's southeast outlot area was destroyed, killing three people and injuring 198.[2][3] The following year, Sam's Club opened on the site of the former Wal-Mart.[4]
Dillard's closed in 2012. The store was originally Leggett and later Belk.[5] The same year, renovations began on converting it to Dick's Sporting Goods and small shop space.[6]
On November 2, 2017, it was announced that Sears, which had been at the mall since its opening in 1989, would be closing as part of a plan to close 63 stores nationwide. The store closed in January 2018.[citation needed]
On January 9, 2025, it was announced that Macy's would be closing as part of a plan to close 66 stores nationwide. The store closed on March 23, 2025.[7]
On August 12th 2025,[citation needed] it was announced that Spinoso Real Estate Group now manages the mall.
