History

Homart Development Company built Newgate Mall in 1981. Its original anchor stores were Sears and Mervyn's. Sears had operated a store on the site prior to the mall opening, but moved to a new location upon construction of the mall while selling their previous location to Mervyn's.^[2] The mall was built by Homart Development Company, then a shopping mall development company owned by Sears.^[3]

Among its tenants was the first Chick-fil-A in Utah.^[4] Phar-Mor was added in February 1992,^[5] but closed only seven months later.^[6]

In 1994, Dillard's opened its second Utah store at the mall.^[7] Between then and 1995, over 100,000 square feet (9,300 m²) of retail space was added, including Victoria's Secret, Lane Bryant, Bath & Body Works, Express, Inc., Famous Footwear, B. Dalton, and Applebee's.^[8] Another new tenant in this timespan was a larger location for Quilted Bear, a consignment shop that had previously occupied a smaller store within.^[9]

A year later, the former Phar-Mor became the first Oshman's in Utah.^[10] The store became Gart Sports in 2001,^[11] Sports Authority in 2006, and DownEast Home & Clothing in 2016.^[12] A 14 screen Cinemark "Tinseltown USA" movie theater was opened in 1998 to replace the mall's aging 4 screen cinema.^[13] Although Newgate Mall initially struggled with high vacancy, the mall's occupancy was boosted in the 2000s, particularly after Ogden City Mall (now The Junction) closed.^[14] Mervyn's closed in 2008 and in 2013 became Burlington Coat Factory which now goes by just Burlington.^[15] Sears closed in April 2018.^[16]
