Westfield Oakridge, formerly known as Westfield Shoppingtown Oakridge and Oakridge Mall, is a shopping mall that was sold to Westfield America, Inc. in 1998, and was rebranded as "Westfield Shoppingtown Oakridge" soon after. The mall is anchored by Macy's, Sears, and Target with junior anchors Nordstrom Rack, Old Navy, Forever 21, and H&M.
Oakridge opened in 1971 with anchors Macy's, Bullock's, and Montgomery Ward. Bullock's closed its Northern California locations in 1983 and sold its Oakridge location to Nordstrom; which opened in the building in 1985. Nordstrom opened a new department store at the competing Valley Fair shopping center in 1987, and the two stores existed simultaneously until 1994 when Nordstrom closed its Oakridge store and sold the building to Sears.
The bankruptcy of Montgomery Ward in 2001 left an empty anchor slot at Oakridge, originally meant to be occupied by The Great Indoors, a Sears-owned home furnishings concept. Instead, the building sat vacant until 2003, when it was demolished and replaced by a two-level Target store. At the same time, Macy's added 75,000 square feet to its existing footprint, bringing its total square footage to more than 220,000 square feet.
Westfield began a $150 million multi-phase expansion in the Summer of 2002 and was completed in late 2003. The 300,000+ square foot expansion added two new junior anchors - Linens n' Things and a Borders bookstore, as well as a 20-screen Century Theatres cinema and a large food court. A restaurant row with The Cheesecake Factory, California Pizza Kitchen, BJ's Restaurant & Brewhouse, P.F. Chang's China Bistro, and Buca di Beppo fronted the new wing facing Blossom Hill Road.
