Future Revampment

As of 2006, Westfield is seeking approval to add-on and remodel the current mall. The plans call for the current Carson Pirie Scott to be demolished and a bigger store will be built, a 14 screen movie theatre to be built, a revamped futuristic food court, and finally parking garages would be added on top of and beneath some of the existing mall. The $110 million dollar project will make the 1.2 million square foot mall expand to a 1.6 million square feet.
