Lansing Mall, Delta, MI

General Growth Properties has numerous malls and outdoor shopping centers around the US. One of their properties is in Lansing, Michigan in the small township of Delta. Lansing Mall was opened in 1969, though it is unknown who the developer was. The mall is one floor, with two floors in one of the four anchor stores. Total the mall has retained 100 stores and services. The square feet of the mall are 830,000.

When Lansing Mall was first opened it contained three anchor stores: The Fair, Wurzburg, and Federal's. Wurzburg became Knapps before it was closed. Federal's closed in 1972, and The Fair became Montgomery Ward. In 1979 a mall extension demolished the area Federal's used to be in allowing the western wing to expand and house Hudson's. Knapp's was no longer a viable company leaving room for JC Penney, which has the only two floor structure in the mall.

In 1987 northern wing was added to Lansing Mall for Mervyns, and the fourth anchor store. General Growth Properties did not obtain the mall until 1997, and they began a 30 million dollar renovation. The remodel added a food court, more seating for customers, and new restroom facilities. Barnes and Noble, and Old Navy moved in at this time. In 1999 Montgomery Ward left due to bankruptcy. Younkers was able to move in during 2002 along with Dunham's Sports. Today the four anchor stores are TJ Maxx, JC Penney, Younkers, and Macy's. Old Navy and Mervyns could not last. There have been discussions about redeveloping the mall again to make an open air center, but nothing has been approved yet.

Mall hours will vary during the year when a holiday is approaching. For example the day after Thanksgiving the mall is open longer, yet closed on Thanksgiving Day and Christmas Day. Normal mall hours are Sunday noon to 6pm and Monday through Saturday 10am to 9pm. Lansing Mall does allow mall walkers. They also have mall events like photos with Santa and sales events.
