History[edit]




Mall entrance to Macys, Green Acres Mall, Valley Stream NY


Green Acres Mall was built in 1956 on the northern portion of Curtiss Airfield and was one of Long Island's first open air malls. It was partially built on the former site of the Columbia Aircraft Corporation.[2] In 1968, the mall was enclosed "to create an even more appealing shopping environment." At the time, there were three anchor stores, Lane's, J.C. Penney, and Gimbels. There were more renovations and an expansion in 1983 including adding a second level, food court and a fourth anchor store, Sears.[3]


In the early days of the mall, WMCA `Good Guys' would broadcast from the mall as would WABC.[4]


The ceilings, floors, and food court have been going under multimillion-dollar renovations to better compare to Long Island's largest mall, Roosevelt Field. The food court's renovation was finished in early 2006. The mall's other renovations were finished in March, 2007. New to the area is a Best Buy, Petsmart and a BJ's Wholesale Club which opened in early 2007. During the last few years the mall's slogan has been Re... such as Reinvented, Redone, Remastered, etc.
It is on Long Island, right next to the border line separating Nassau County and Queens.


On January 11, 2019, it was announced that Kohl's would be closing as part of a plan to close 4 stores nationwide.[5]



Anchor stores[edit]


The mall has many anchors such as Macy's, Macy's Men's and Furniture Gallery, J.C. Penney, Kohl's, and Sears. It is currently owned and managed by The Macerich Company, having been previously owned and operated by Vornado Realty Trust until January 2013. It was announced in May 2012 that Vornado planned to sell the mall and some of its other retail centers,[6] and in October 2012, it was announced that the mall was being sold to Macerich in a deal that completed in the beginning of 2013.[7]

  • Gimbel's - Closed in 1987. Replaced by Abraham & Straus. Abraham & Straus closed in 1995. Replaced by Macy's
