Opened in 1968,[1] it is the only shopping center between Winston-Salem, North Carolina and Roanoke, Virginia.[2] One of the original anchor stores was W.T. Grant's Grant City, which closed in 1975[3] and became Kmart. Kmart closed in 2016. Winn Dixie was also an anchor until it relocated in 1978.[4] Belk was added in 1970,[5] and J. C. Penney moved into the mall in 1987.[6]

On June 8, 2018, JCPenney announced that its store would be closing on July 9, 2018 which left Belk as the only anchor left.[7]
