As of February 2024, the mall's anchors are Macy's, Bloomingdale's, BJ's Wholesale Club; JCPenney, which had anchored neighboring Wayne Towne Center since it opened, relocated to Willowbrook in March 2024. Willowbrook also features a 14-screen Cinemark movie theater, which is located in the rear parking lot adjacent to BJ's auto center.
With blue laws in effect in neighboring Bergen County and even stricter restrictions in effect in Paramus, Willowbrook Mall has benefited from the spillover of shoppers on Sunday.[3] The mall and its surrounding access roads and parking areas are prone to flooding in rainstorms. The Passaic River flows near the mall and one of its tributaries, and the Pompton River, runs behind it.[4]
