Willowbrook Mall (New Jersey)

Willowbrook Mall is a one-level shopping center with a partial second floor located in Wayne, in the U.S. state of New Jersey.

[4] As of July 2024, the mall's four anchor spaces are occupied by Macy's, Bloomingdale's, BJ's Wholesale Club, and JCPenney.

The mall also features a 14-screen Cinemark movie theater, which is located in the rear parking lot adjacent to BJ's auto center.

[6] Construction of Willowbrook Mall began in 1966 with the groundbreaking of a Bamberger's store[7] and by 1968 included an Ohrbach's and a Sears.

On July 15, 2019, Sears announced that it would shutter as part of an ongoing decision to eliminate their traditional brick-and-mortar format.

[30] In August 2020, Lord & Taylor announced that it would shutter its traditional brick and mortar format as a direct result of the COVID-19 pandemic.

[32] JCPenney, which had been an anchor at neighboring Wayne Towne Center since that mall's opening, moved to Willowbrook in the spring of 2024 to take over a space previously occupied by Ohrbach's, Steinbach, and Lord & Taylor.

BJ's opened its Willowbrook outpost in late 2022 in a portion of the former Sears anchor, which had been downscaled and reconfigured before it was closed.
