Sunrise Mall[2] is a shopping mall located in East Massapequa, New York. The mall opened on August 30, 1973 as the first two-level shopping mall on Long Island.

History

[edit]

Built by the Muss-Tankoos Corporation, the 1.3-million-square-foot mall cost $45 million and featured 140 individual shops, plus four department stores, as the first two-floor mall on Long Island.[3][4] Opened on August 30, 1973, Sunrise Mall was originally anchored by JCPenney, Gertz, Macy's, and E. J. Korvette.[5][6] Other stores included F. W. Woolworth, Fanny Farmer, Herman's, Thom McAn, Lerner Shops, Nathan's, and Sam Goody.[7] A five-screen movie theater operated by United Artists opened at the mall in 1976. Two more screens were added in 1979.[8]

It was remodeled in 1991 to modernize the space and add a glass elevator and skylights.[4] A koi pond was installed in the mall in 1996, converting a 4,000-gallon duck pond.[9][10] The theater closed at the end of its lease in 1999 and was replaced by multiple stores.[8] The mall was acquired by the Westfield Group in 2005 for $143 million and renamed Westfield Sunrise.[11][12][13] In June 2007, a man was arrested after driving his car through the mall and causing $60,000 worth of damage.[14]

Walmart closed its store in the mall on March 6, 2015 after 12 years and was replaced by Dick's Sporting Goods.[15][16][17] On March 17, 2017, it was announced that JCPenney would be closing their store in the mall and liquidation sales were expected to begin on April 17, 2017.[18] However, on April 13, it announced that, due to more shoppers coming to the store, liquidation sales would begin on May 22, 2017 instead of April 17, 2017. The store ultimately closed on July 31, 2017.[19]

In October 2018, SeaQuest announced its plan to open an interactive aquarium in the Sunrise Mall.[20] However, the company later pulled out in May 2019, citing the lengthy approval process and ongoing resistance from activists, including actor Alec Baldwin.[21] On October 1, 2021, it was announced that Sears would be closing on October 3. This left Macy's as the only traditional anchor left in the mall.[22][23]

On March 19, 2020, the mall closed due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.[24] It remained closed until July 15.[25] On August 4, 2020, it was announced that the mall would be going back to its original name, Sunrise Mall.[26] On January 4, 2021, Sunrise Mall was purchased by Urban Edge Properties from Unibail-Rodamco-Westfield for $29.7 million.[27][28]

In February 2022, it was announced that Urban Edge Properties would not be renewing leases for its remaining 50 tenants and was considering other ways to redevelop the space.[29][30] By September, the mall's 50 koi had been relocated to local schools and the Long Island Aquarium.[9]
