Westgate Mall is a Greater Cleveland suburban shopping center established in the mid-1950s and revitalized in 2007 after a decline in visitors since the 1990s.
In 1984, the Richard E. Jacobs Group, a Cleveland-based real estate developer, took ownership of the complex and began renovations and remerchandising to aim for the upper-income buyers surrounding the mall.
The 1990s saw another decline of the complex as newer facilities like Great Northern Mall in nearby and far-flung suburbs, a revitalized Downtown Cleveland and a recession-battered economy took its toll.
Dillard's eliminated non-apparel items in early 2004 and consolidated into the north store,[2] which it eventually closed at the end of March 2005.
Other stores include Ulta, Verizon, Great Clips, Five Below, Justice, Famous Footwear, Starbucks, Chick-fil-A, and The Original Pancake House.
