There is a food court in the center of the mall. This was the original location of a junior anchor Frankenbergers Department Store. This food court was the first mall location for Knoxville-based Petro's Chili & Chips.[2]
On October 15, 2018, it was announced that Sears would be closing as part of a plan to close 142 stores nationwide. The store closed on January 6, 2019,[3] and demolition began on January 9, 2020[4] Subsequent to the demolition, it was replaced by Dick's House of Sport, a new concept by Dick's Sporting Goods.[5]
Movie theaters
In 1998, Knoxville based Regal Entertainment Group opened a Funscape entertainment complex in the mall.[6] In 2018, the Regal Cinemas was rebranded to Cinebarre.
