Meadowood Mall's superstore was subsequently re-branded, despite Sports Authority having a stand-alone location less than a mile away.
The mall underwent cosmetic renovations and inline expansions in 2013 and added Dick's Sporting Goods[5] in a newly constructed anchor location in 2016.
The Taubman Company, which owned Meadowood Mall at the time, took advantage and was able to woo several tenants from Park Lane as part of an expansion project.
[9] In April 2004, General Motors Pension Trusts sold the mall to Mills Corporation,[10] which, in turn, was bought by Simon Property Group in 2007.
[11] The 2006 opening of the upscale Summit Sierra Marketplace in south Reno coupled with the 2008 opening of Legends at Sparks Marina in Sparks, NV left Meadowood Mall trailing in shopping destinations for the region despite it being the lone enclosed mall in the region.
As a result, Simon Properties and the mall announced plans for a $3.5 million[12] renovation to bring new stores, restaurants, and a much needed facelift updating the 1970s decor as well as adding more seating areas and device charging stations for mall patrons.
There are also five additional drink and snack options throughout the mall outside of the food court and one full-service restaurant, The Cheesecake Factory.
