Plaza West Covina, formerly Westfield West Covina, and before that Plaza at West Covina, West Covina Fashion Plaza, and West Covina Plaza, is a large regional shopping mall in West Covina, California, owned by the Starwood Capital Group. Its anchor stores are Macy's, JCPenney, Sears, XXI Forever, Nordstrom Rack, Best Buy, Gold's Gym. Westfield America, Inc., a precursor to Westfield Group acquired the shopping center in 1998, and renamed it "Westfield Shoppingtown West Covina", dropping the "Shoppingtown" name in June 2005. In October 2013 Westfield Group sold the mall to Starwood Capital Group
West Covina Plaza, an open-air strip shopping complex, opened in 1962, anchored by The Broadway and Desmond's, a specialty retailer. The complex was demolished in 1974, leaving The Broadway and Desmond's intact. These were worked into an enclosed complex known as West Covina Fashion Plaza, which opened in 1975. The new center paralleled the San Bernardino Freeway and added new anchors JCPenney and Bullock's. Desmonds was not connected to the mall. The store folded in the late 1970s and became a 2-story Tower Records location.
In 1991, the official name of the shopping venue was changed to Plaza At West Covina. 1992-1993, a new wing anchored by Robinsons-May was constructed east of the Bullock's store. The first major anchor changes didn't come until 1996, when Federated Department Stores sold The Broadway store to Bloomingdale's, but due to lease issues, it became a Sears instead, and converted the Bullock's location to Macy's. Sears opened their new location in 1997, moving from a nearby stand-alone location in Covina.
