Prior to 2022, Weberstown Mall was one of two enclosed shopping malls in Stockton, the other being Sherwood Mall, which is located next door. Sherwood was redeveloped into a conventional shopping center and was renamed Sherwood Place. As a result, Weberstown became the city's lone remaining enclosed shopping mall.

History

Charles M. Weber III built Weberstown Mall in 1966.[3] The original anchors were Sears and Weinstock's.

Old Navy opened one of its first locations at the mall in 1995, taking over a spot vacated by Pier 1 Imports.[4] In 1996, the Weinstock's store closed. Two years later, it was purchased by Dillard's to become that chain's first California location.[5] Barnes & Noble moved into the mall in 1997, replacing a store nearby.[6] A year later, Glimcher Realty Trust purchased the mall.

The mall's JCPenney store was slated for closure in 2000, but the decision to close was later overturned.[7]

H&M opened a store in Weberstown in 2014. It was shuttered in 2022.
