Shenango Valley Mall is a shopping mall located in Hermitage, Pennsylvania. It is anchored by JCPenney.[4][8][9]

History

The land Shenango Valley Mall sits on is owned by the McConnell family.[5][6][10] JCPenney opened at the mall in January 1969.[9] Shenango Valley Mall was renovated in 1997, costing $3.5 million. It was the malls first major renovation since opening in the 1960s and Kaufmann's also expanded its store.[2] Crown American Realty Trust, the mall's owner, was sold to PREIT in 2003.[11] The mall was then sold by PREIT, along with five others to The Lightstone Group in 2004.[12][13] Kaufmann's was re-branded as Macy's in August 2006.[14] Shenango Valley Mall and three other malls entered receivership in January 2009, with Jones Lang LaSalle taking over management.[5][15][16][17][18] Jones Lang LaSalle offered the mall, along with three others, for sale in May 2009.[19][20] An attempted sale with two other malls failed in 2010.[21]

Shenango Valley Mall made national news due to the closure of both its Macy's and Sears in March 2017.[8][22] Sears Auto Center was not part of the closure.[23] Firestone and Sears Auto Center were both damaged in the same month by a storm.[24] In 2017, Hermitage City and School District challenged the mall's tax reassessment that significantly reduced its value due to the loss of two anchors.[25][26][27] JSMN Shenango Valley Mall defaulted on the mall's $3.430 million loan in February 2018, with courts assigning Metro Commercial as the malls operator.[3][28][29] The malls lender, Iowa Square Realty LLC, won it at sheriff's sale for $50,000 in July 2018.[4][30][31]
