PREIT to Replace Sears With Von Maur at Woodland Mall in Grand Rapids, Michigan

GRAND RAPIDS, MICH. — PREIT has unveiled plans to replace the Sears set to close in Woodland Mall with a 90,000-square-foot Von Maur store. This will be the first location for Von Maur in the Grand Rapids area. The portion of the mall to be redeveloped, consisting of Von Maur and additional retail and restaurant space, will open in 2019. Sears currently occupies 313,000 square feet and will close in March. Other tenants at the mall include Apple, Lush, North Face and Pottery Barn. Woodland Mall’s proximity to the high-income communities of Ada, Cascade and East Grand Rapids drives strong retailer and shopper demand.
