Muncie Mall

Muncie Mall is an enclosed shopping mall in Muncie, Indiana. Opened in 1970, it was developed by Melvin Simon & Associates, now known as Simon Property Group. The mall's original anchor stores were W. T. Grant, Britt's, Sears, and Ball Stores. In 2020 the mall had no anchor stores, although it continued to have over 30 inline tenants. Its anchor stores as they closed were JCPenney, Macy's, Carson's, and Sears. In 2021 the former Macy's building was bought by a discount store called Buyers Market. The mall is owned and managed by the Hull Property Group.

Muncie Mall opened in 1970 with Britt's, W. T. Grant, and Sears as its anchor stores. Other major tenants upon opening included a National Tea supermarket and Osco Drug. Britt's later became L. S. Ayres and Grants later became J. C. Penney, respectively. Another major tenant was Ball Stores, which later became Elder-Beerman.

Outback Steakhouse opened in the surrounding area on July 22, 1997. That year, after L.S. Ayres vacated the central anchor spot for a new store in the mall, the former Ayres building became a new Elder-Beerman store. Elder-Beerman continued to operate a home goods store within the former Ball Stores. L.S. Ayres' newer store became Macy's in 2006. Books-A-Million opened its fourth Indiana store at the mall in the former Osco Drug in 2006. Old Navy, which replaced the Elder-Beerman home store, closed in 2010.

The discount movie theater closed in the early 2000s, it has since been walled over and used for storage.

A Target store opened outside the mall on the west side on March 5, 2003.

Elder-Beerman became Carson's in 2012. On April 18, 2018, Carson's announced that its store would be closing as a result of liquidation of their parent company, Bon-Ton. The store closed on August 31, 2018. On May 31, 2018, Sears announced that they would also be closing as part of a plan to close 72 stores nationwide. Sears closed in September 2018. On May 31, 2019, it was announced that the owner of the mall will be returning the mall to the bank. On January 7, 2020, Macy's announced that they would be closing as part of a plan to close 125 stores nationwide. The store was set to close in April 2020, but due to the COVID-19 pandemic, it closed in March along with the temporary closure of the mall.

In 2019, the former Carson's was used for a once a month flea market, which later closed. In 2021, Spirit Halloween occupied the space. Neither of them used the second floor.

On June 4, 2020, JCPenney announced that it would be closing in October 2020 as part of a plan to close 154 stores nationwide; this left the mall without any anchor stores. The mall had seventeen permanently closed stores and restaurants as of July 2020.
