The Vyond City Mall is a major 4 floor shopping mall in Vyond City, FL. Its current manager is Lester Evernham.

History[]

The fully enclosed mall opened in June 1975 with three anchor stores — Nordstrom, Bamberger's and Wanamaker's — , a food court, and 150+ specialty stores. In 1986, Bamberger's became Boscov's. In 1995, the Wanamaker's store became Hecht's. Hecht's became Strawbridge's in 1997 after its parent company, May Department Stores, acquired the Strawbridge's chain. In 2000, construction began to build a JCPenney store as a fifth anchor, which opened on August 1, 2001. In 2006, the Strawbridge's store closed after Federated Department Stores acquired May Department Stores; the Strawbridge's was replaced by Boscov's.
