203 Yorktown Center
Yorktown Center is an enclosed regional shopping mall located in the village of Lombard, a suburb of Chicago, Illinois, United States. Anchor stores include Carson Pirie Scott, J. C. Penney, and a flagship Von Maur (the third-largest store in the Von Maur chain behind the Perimeter Mall location that opened in 2012 in Dunwoody, Georgia, and the Riverchase Galleria location that opened in 2013 in Hoover, Alabama). The mall also features two junior anchor stores, HomeGoods and Marshalls, and more than 100 other stores on its two levels. Other amenities include a food court, a movie theater (AMC Theatres, formerly a General Cinema), and an outdoor concourse of shops known as The Shops on Butterfield.
At the time of its 1968 opening, the 1,300,000-square-foot (120,000 m2) Yorktown Center ranked as the largest shopping center in America. The mall was originally a four-anchor indoor mall - three-story Carson Pirie Scott and Wieboldt's anchor department stores faced each other across a central courtyard, while wings for two-story J. C. Penney and Montgomery Ward anchor department stores stretched northward and southward, respectively, from the center courtyard. The mall also contained two two-story junior anchors: Madigan's, a department store near the Wieboldt's end of the J.C. Penney wing, and Woolworth's, a dime store near the Montgomery Ward anchor. Other major tenants included Chas. A. Stevens and Herman's World of Sporting Goods. North of the mall proper, a strip mall dubbed the "Convenience Center" was constructed. This was originally anchored by a Grand Union supermarket, which later became a Scandinavian Design furniture store and, as of 2008, a furniture store for the mall's Carson Pirie Scott anchor. Other perimeter buildings included auto centers for the JCPenney and Montgomery Ward anchors, a movie theater, and two restaurants.
