BREA MALL

The 'Brea Mall' is a shopping mall located in the northern Orange County community of Brea, California. Brea is within minutes of California State University, Fullerton. It is owned and operated by the Simon Property Group, and is home to four major department stores, over 175 specialty shops and boutiques, and a food court. It is approximately 1,310,000 square feet (1.31 million).
Originally, the mall was anchored by The Broadway, Sears, May Company California, J.W. Robinson's, and Nordstrom. Nordstrom replaced its original store with a newer and larger store in the late 1980s. In 1993, May Department Stores merged J.W. Robinson's and May Company California to form the former Robinsons-May. As a result, the J.W. Robinson's store was sold to J.C. Penney, and the May Company California location was renamed Robinsons-May and later expanded. The Broadway was converted to Macy's after Federated Department Stores purchase of The Broadway's parent company Carter Hawley Hale Stores in 1996. In 2006, due to the merger between Federated Department Stores and May Department Stores, the Robinsons-May location was converted to a Macy's Furniture Store.
The Brea Mall has also been host to recording artists such as Ashlee Simpson, Mýa, Ryan Cabrera, and The Summer Obsession.
