Fox Valley Mall

Fox Valley Mall, formerly Westfield Fox Valley and Fox Valley Center, is a shopping mall in Aurora, Illinois. The mall's anchor stores are JCPenney and Macy's. Some larger non-anchor stores include H&M and Forever 21. A Round One Entertainment is located in the former Sears wing. The Westfield Group acquired the shopping center in early 2002, and renamed it Westfield Shoppingtown Fox Valley, dropping the Shoppingtown name in June 2005. Westfield Group sold an 80% interest in the mall as of December 2015.

Fox Valley Center was a joint-venture between the Urban Investment and Development Company and the Homart Development Company.

Fox Valley Mall is a 1,500,000-square-foot (140,000 m²) enclosed mall. It opened and was completed on July 30, 1975. Sears and Marshall Field's were already open before the mall's opening date, and they opened on February 18, 1975. Fox Valley Center would open with space for 160 shops and services.

JCPenney opened on April 6, 1977 with their Orland Square store, and finally Lord & Taylor opened on August 7, 1977.

This was later followed by marketing for home builders and office development in the area marketed as Fox Valley Villages.

Sales at the mall were stated at $115 million in 1977.

Lord & Taylor closed on February 14, 1996 and was sold to Carson Pirie Scott (later known as Carson's). The Carson Pirie Scott opened on November 2, 1996.

The Westfield Group purchased Fox Valley Center in 2002. After Westfield's purchase of the mall, all the signs and usage of the Fox Valley Center logo were discontinued and replaced with Westfield's standard mall brand logo, with the shortened Fox Valley name. In the same time period there was an extensive renovation of the mall for the first time in its history. This removed the mall's large gardens and plants that were spread out throughout the mall. After Centennial Real Estate's purchase of 80% interest in the mall in 2015, all "Westfield" signs were replaced with "Fox Valley Mall" signs.
