By the 1970s Federal's closed down new stores were added in. The Old Dunham's Sports came in, only to move across the mall. Service Merchadise fill up the area. Then it was closed in late 1990s. Replace by Office Max. Eaten Place was the food court at the time. Later it was remodeled to only 5 resturants. It did catch on. In the 1990s Woolwoths closed down.Target arrived in the early 1990s. Just recently a 6 year old black boy named DeWan Simms was shopping with his mother in the Target Store when he was vanished. He was never seen again. Ward's was closed in 1999.
