In March 2019, Nickels and Dimes Inc of Celina Texas announced that Tilt Studio would open up at the mall in the former Mervyn's/Burlington. This marked Tilt's return to the mall, as its parent company originally operated Tilt Arcade at the Food Court in the late 1980s to 2012.^[7] On August 12, 2020, Stein Mart filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Later, it was announced that all Stein Mart locations would be closing permanently.
