Florence, KY

Florence Mall is an enclosed shopping mall in Florence, Kentucky, United States. The mall, opened in 1976, has around 100 stores, including four anchor stores (JCPenney, Sears and two Macy's stores) as well as a food court. The mall is managed by General Growth Properties of Chicago, Illinois, and is noted for an adjacent water tower which is painted with the phrase "Florence Y'all", which originally read "Florence Mall".

The Florence Mall opened in 1976 on a site along Interstate 75 just south of Kentucky Route 18. The two-story mall was constructed by Homart Development, a former real estate division of Sears, Roebuck and Company. Sears also served as one of the anchor stores, opening on March 10, 1976. The mall itself opened six months later, with Pogue's serving as the second anchor. Two more anchors — Shillito's and JCPenney — were added in 1977 and 1978, respectively. At the time of opening, the mall featured 87 stores. The mall's opening led to the development of several retail stores in Florence, and as a result, the city became a retail hub for northern Kentucky.
