Originally known as Tri-County Shopping Center, it opened in 1960 and has been expanded several times in its history. At its peak, it included over 150 tenants and four anchor stores, although three of the four (J. C. Penney, Sears, and Dillard's) have closed their locations, leaving only Macy's. HistoryJoseph Meyerhoff, a businessman who had developed several shopping and residential properties in Baltimore, Maryland, announced plans for Tri-County Center in 1959. The plans called for a shopping center with two Cincinnati-based department stores as the anchor stores: John Shillito Company (Shillito's) and H. & S. Pogue Company (Pogue's), . Other tenants announced for the center included an S. S. Kresge Corporation dime store, a Kroger supermarket, and Gray Drug. Kenneth C. Miller was the mall's architect.[1] Consulting firms helped select the mall's site, at the northeastern corner of Princeton Pike and Kemper Road just south of the then-under construction Interstate 275, after determining that the area had the greatest potential for future suburban growth.[2] Groundbreaking for the {{convert|75|acre|ha|adj=on}} site began in July 1959.[3]The mall officially opened to the public on September 26, 1960. Opening ceremonies included performances by the Princeton High School band and a ribbon-cutting ceremony hosted by mall developer Joseph Meyerhoff and Springdale's mayor. At the time of opening, it consisted of 51 stores in {{convert|500000|sqft|m2}} of shop space, with parking for up to 4,000 cars. A 1960 article in The Cincinnati Enquirer described the mall as "landscaped to give the appearance of a park", while also noting that it was the largest center built by Meyerhoff at the time.[4] The Shillito's store was expanded in late 1962 with the addition of a fourth level, while the store's lowest level became a "basement" store which sold discounted merchandise, similarly to their location in downtown Cincinnati.[5] Sears opened as the mall's third anchor store in May 1967.[6] The {{convert|142300|sqft|m2|adj=on}}, two-story store was a prototype for the chain, featuring a larger variety of merchandise and services than its typical stores of the era, including automotive repair and a restaurant.[7] Connecting Sears to the rest of the mall was a new wing of stores. Unlike the rest of the mall at the time, the expansion wing was enclosed, featuring palm trees, tropical plants, and fountains, along with antique lights and skylights. Tenants in this section of the mall included Casual Corner, Lane Bryant, Spencer Gifts, Hickory Farms, and Waldenbooks.[8] In early 1968, the rest of the formerly open-air mall was enclosed as well, featuring decor similar to the 1967 expansion. This enclosure allowed for events such as concerts, art fairs, and charity shows to be held at any time of the year. The firm of Baxter, Hodell, Donnelly, and Preston served as architects on the enclosure project.[9]The retail hub was expanded again between the years 1989 and 1992. This project added a fourth anchor, McAlpin's, and a second level of retail, which was built on top of the first. In July 2013, the mall was purchased at a sheriff's sale for $45 million by American Pacific, an Oregon-based investment group.[10] AnchorsThe original Shillito's store has been through several name changes since it opened in 1960. The first was in 1982 when Shillito's combined with corporate sister store, Rike's, and was renamed Shillito Rikes. Four years later, the nameplate changed to Lazarus. In 2003, Lazarus' parent company started to phase out the Lazarus name. The store became Lazarus-Macy's that year, before becoming Macy's in March 2005. The other original anchor, Pogue's, was renamed L. S. Ayres in 1983. L. S. Ayres closed the store in 1988, and J. C. Penney moved into the space soon afterward. J. C. Penney closed their Tri-County location in July 2005. The former site was gutted and redeveloped between the years 2006 and 2008. The first level became a new mall entrance, Ethan Allen Furniture and B.J.'s Restaurant and Brewhouse. The upper floors were devoted to a Krazy City indoor theme park, which has since closed. In 1998 the McAlpin's store became Dillard's. Sears is the only store in the mall that has retained its name identity since that store opened. Dillard's closed its store in 2015 after operating the location as an outlet store.[11] On June 4, 2018, Sears announced that its Tri-County store would close in September 2018, leaving Macy's as the only anchor left. The Sears location subsequently closed as originally stated, and the old Sears property now remains vacant outside the mall.[12] References1. ^{{cite news | url=https://www.newspapers.com/image/103536325/ | title=Center is a 'giant' with 50 stores | work=The Cincinnati Enquirer | date=February 1, 1959 | accessdate=March 31, 2019 | author=Dick Havlin | pages=8A}} 2. ^{{cite news | url=https://www.newspapers.com/image/100809954/ | title=The Tri-County Center | work=The Cincinnati Enquirer | date=February 1, 1959 | accessdate=March 31, 2019 | pages=2H}} 3. ^{{cite news | url=https://www.newspapers.com/image/100826799/ | title=Tri-County work starts next week | work=The Cincinnati Enquirer | date=July 18, 1959 | accessdate=March 31, 2019 | pages=6B}} 4. ^{{cite news | url=https://www.newspapers.com/image/103498064/ | title='Opening Day' festivities at Tri-County | work=The Cincinnati Enquirer | date=October 6, 1960 | accessdate=March 31, 2019 | pages=50}} 5. ^{{cite news | url=https://www.newspapers.com/image/101656064/ | title=A store within a store, Tri-County lower level | work=The Cincinnati Enquirer | date=September 23, 1962 | accessdate=April 1, 2019 | pages=34}} 6. ^{{cite news | url=https://www.newspapers.com/image/100779745/ | title=Sears opens at Tri-County | work=The Cincinnati Enquirer | date=May 21, 1967 | accessdate=March 31, 2019 | pages=5}} 7. ^{{cite news | url=https://www.newspapers.com/image/104259197 | title=Cincinnati 'model city' for Sears | work=The Cincinnati Enquirer | date=April 9, 1967 | accessdate=March 31, 2019 | pages=7D}} 8. ^{{cite news | url=https://www.newspapers.com/image/100698202/ | title=Enclosed, air-conditioned wing opened at T.
