It opened in 1964 as an open-air shopping center. Northland was the first of the four directionally-named shopping hubs in Columbus, along with Eastland (1967), Westland (1969) and Southland (1975) [a small strip center, now closed]. Though popular through the 1990s, three new shopping centers were completed in the late 1990s and early 2000s that took businesses and shoppers away from Northland. It closed in 2002 and was demolished in 2004. The site has subsequently been redeveloped as Northland Village, a multi-use complex containing government offices, retail stores and the Franklin County Dog Shelter and Adoption Center. HistoryNorthland was one of the first large-scale shopping mall to open in the Columbus Metropolitan area, and remained the only one until 1967, when Eastland was constructed near the suburb of Whitehall. Its original two anchors were Lazarus (now Macy's) and Sears. A JCPenney was added in 1979, when the mall was expanded and enclosed. From the time of its opening through the decade of the 1980s, it was one of the most popular and upscale shopping destinations in Columbus, drawing in customers from the affluent northern suburbs of the city. A food court was added in a further expansion in around 1990, replacing a Woolworths that had just vacated, and the main mall's facade was updated. During the 1990s, however, the mall began a steady decline caused by the introduction of newer shopping options in the Greater Columbus area. The first new mall in the area in 20 years, the downtown Columbus City Center, opened in 1989 and included several tenants that were unique in the Columbus area (among them Marshall Field's and Jacobson's), which took some business from Northland. However, it remained popular with shoppers in the northern half of Columbus, and continued to be an attractive destination for those who found City Center's downtown location (and paid parking) a hindrance. The opening of The Mall at Tuttle Crossing in 1997 was the first major hit to Northland. It could not match the capacity of Tuttle, which was a larger two-level mall with four anchor stores (including all three of Northland's anchors, plus a Marshall Field's). The opening of Tuttle was far more devastating to Westland Mall, but nonetheless attracted shoppers from the nearby suburbs of Powell and Dublin who would have otherwise gone to Northland. Two years later, Easton Town Center opened in northeastern Columbus—just five miles away from Northland—as a mixed-use "lifestyle center" that further drew shoppers and businesses away, and the older facility (along with the Morse Road corridor itself) began to go into sharp decline. The most severe blow to Northland's fortunes occurred in Fall 2001, when all three anchors (Lazarus, Sears, and JCPenney) pulled out of the dying mall and relocated to the newly constructed Polaris Fashion Place.[2] Although Northland would remain open, it had been reduced to the status of a bazaar-type mall with only a small handful of specialty shops in operation. Finally, on October 31, 2002, after 38 years of service in Columbus, Northland Mall closed permanently. The mall concourse and the vacant Sears anchor were demolished in February 2004. After redevelopment as what is now known as Northland Village, the only parts of Northland Mall that remain are two of its anchor stores: the former Lazarus, which was converted to offices for the Ohio Department of Taxation; and the former JCPenney, which was extensively rebuilt to contain the headquarters of the Franklin County Department of Job and Family Services as well as the Northland Performing Arts Center, home to a local theater group (Vaud-Villities) and other events and activities.[3] A Menards home improvement store now lies on the site of the former Sears, and the Franklin County Dog Shelter and Adoption Center moved to part of the area in October 2011. A new {{convert|102000|sqfoot|m2}} Kroger grocery store was built in the area that was formerly the central concourse of the mall, completed in late 2016.[4] References1. ^{{cite news |title=Northland Mall demolition to begin |url=http://www.bizjournals.com/columbus/stories/2004/01/19/daily33.html |work=Business First of Columbus |date=January 23, 2004 |accessdate=2008-03-02}} 2. ^{{cite web|url=http://columbus.bizjournals.com/columbus/stories/2002/08/12/story4.html|title=Northland Mall buyer to face myriad issues|last=Ball|first=Brian R.|date=12 August 2002|work=Business First of Columbus|accessdate=5 June 2010}} 3. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.vvproductions.com/showinfo/index.php|title=Show Information|publisher=}} 4. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.thisweeknews.com/content/stories/northland/news/2016/03/21/ncc-development-committee-kroger-to-give-briefing-on-plans-for-new-store.html|title=Kroger to give briefing on plans for new store|date=March 21, 2016|author=Kevin Parks|work=ThisWeek Community News}} External links
