Sunland Park Mall is a shopping mall in El Paso, Texas, owned and operated by WP Glimcher. It is located on El Paso's west side, at Interstate 10 and Sunland Park Drive. It features five anchor stores operating under four brand names, and more than 130 specialty stores on two enclosed levels. It is the second-largest mall of the three in the metro area, behind Cielo Vista Mall.[1]

With a gross leasable area of 918,000 square feet (85,300 m2), the mall is classified as a super-regional mall by the International Council of Shopping Centers.[2]

Construction of the mall was completed in 1988, and it opened to the public on August 31 of that year. It is approximately one mile from Sunland Park Racetrack & Casino, a racino just across the state line in Sunland Park, New Mexico. It is about four miles (6 km) from the border with Mexico.[3]

Anchors

The fifth anchor was Macy's which closed in 2017.

The fourth anchor was Forever 21 which closed in 2018.

Wurlitzer theatre organ

A Mighty Wurlitzer theater organ, originally located in El Paso's Plaza Theatre, was located at the mall while the shuttered theater was being renovated for reopening. The organ was returned to the area from a Dallas, Texas collector and installed at the mall. The organ returned to the Plaza when it reopened in 2006.[4][5]
