Originally opened for business in 1963, Moorestown Mall underwent a partial renovation in 1986 and was completely renovated in 1993-94, after a serious fire damaged the northeast quarter of the mall on December 23, 1992. The Strawbridge's store was rebuilt in 1999 after the fire. Prior to The Rouse Company's purchase of the center in December 1997, Lord & Taylor had committed to opening a store at the mall. Nordstrom also considered opening a location in South Jersey but they did not commit to the mall's expansion plans.
In an attempt to protect the Cherry Hill Mall, a mere 3 miles (4.8 km) away, The Rouse Company acquired the Moorestown Mall. Pennsylvania Real Estate Investment Trust acquired the Cherry Hill Mall, Echelon Mall, Moorestown Mall, Exton Square, Plymouth Meeting Mall, and Gallery at Market East in exchange for Christiana Mall on March 7, 2003.
