🛍️ Muscatine Mall

Muscatine Mall, originally Muscatine Plaza, is a shopping mall in Muscatine, Iowa, United States. Its anchor stores are the Lab, Slumberland Furniture, and Warehouse Bargains. Built in 1971 by General Growth Properties, the mall originally featured Woolworth and Montgomery Ward as its anchor stores, with JCPenney joining in 1975. Woolworth was converted to Woolco, which closed in 1983 and became the first Walmart in the state of Iowa. After Walmart moved to a larger store, their space became Menards, which also relocated and was replaced by Slumberland Furniture. Montgomery Ward became Von Maur, Staples, Elder-Beerman, Younkers, and Compton's Furniture & More before becoming Warehouse Bargains. The mall has undergone a number of periods of decline, owing to relocation and closure of charter tenants. It is owned and managed by Muscatine Mall Management, LLC.
