The Columbia Mall is a shopping mall located in Columbia, Missouri. It was built in 1985[1] and is the largest mall in its area.[2] The mall's anchor stores are Target, JCPenney, Level Up Entertainment, two Dillard's stores, and Barnes & Noble.

Facility[edit]

The mall's anchors are two Dillard's stores, JCPenney, and Target.[1] The mall also has a post office[3] and a car wash.[4] It was the 3rd mall in Columbia, after Parkade Plaza in 1965 and Biscayne Mall in 1972.[5] In 2013, an H&M store was announced for the mall.[6][7] In April 2018, Sears Holdings announced the closure of the mall's Sears store in July 2018, which is the company's last store in mid-Missouri.[8] In August 2019, it was announced that a second Dillard's would move into the former Sears building.[9] The store opened on February 22, 2020.[10]
