The property is being renamed Springfield Crossing and will function as an open air shopping center that includes dining options.

Eastfield Mall opened in 1968 with three anchors, two of which were local department stores: Forbes & Wallace and Steiger's.

[4] In 1994, Filene's, whose parent company, May Department Stores, had bought Steiger's, moved into their old space.

[5] The addition of a Steve & Barry's clothing store in 2006 put the mall at full occupancy for the first time since 1978.

[7] In 2009, Hannoush Jewelers opened a showroom in the space vacated by Steve & Barry's.

[17][18] The former Eastfield Mall location is now being redeveloped into the new Springfield Crossing, which is expected to open in summer 2025.
