Westfield South Shore is a super-regional shopping mall in Bay Shore, New York, United States. The mall is owned by the Westfield Group, and has 1,165,000 square feet (108,232 m2) of gross leasable area.[1] The mall originally opened as the South Shore Mall on August 30, 1963.
The mall was opened in 1963 by the R.H. Macy Company, which opened the 3-level, 318,800-square-foot (29,620 m2) Macy's as the original anchor.[2] The open-air, 70-store first phase of the mall was completed by 1967, and originally included stores such as Record Town, Woolworth's, Lerner Shops, Bond's,[3] and JCPenney, which was the first in-line JCPenney location in the New York area at the time.[4] The mall's Loews Theaters location opened around the same time. In the mid 1970s, there was also a section of the mall divided into an area named "Captree Corners", a bazaar-like setup of small stores clustered into a village-like mini-mall area.[5]
The mall was fully enclosed in 1975. In December 1986, the mall's ownership was sold to the Westfield Corporation for $85 million.[6] Shortly after the change in ownership, plans for an expansion were underway. The renovation/expansion was underway by 1996, which gutted the northern end of the center, which was replaced with 40,000 square feet (3,700 m2) of new retail area, along with a newly built, 3-level (216,300 ft²) Sears, which opened in September 1997, and in 2015 closed due to high rent in that space. A 2-level (120,000 ft²) Lord & Taylor eventually opened in late 1998, replacing the former Woolworth.[7] On March 4th, 2012, Macy's closed their original store (now demolished) and relocated to a newly built 2-story location at the mall that opened on August 14, 2013. On June 16, 2016 Dick's Sporting Goods announced that it would be opening up two new stores on Long Island—one in Westfield Sunrise and the other one at Westfield South Shore. Dick's opened in April 2017 in the former Sears space.[8]
