Sidney Forbes and Maurice Cohen, owners of Forbes/Cohen Properties, first announced plans for Lakeview Square in 1980.

The proposal called for a mall to be located on property on Beckley Road on the south side of Battle Creek, bound to the north by I-94 and to the east by M-66.

Dunham's Sports also opened a store at the mall in 2006, relocating from the nearby Minges Creek Plaza.

Leaving only a couple stores in the middle corridor of the mall including: General Nutrition Center(GNC), and Chinese Wellness.
