Wilton Mall is a regional shopping center, located off Interstate 87 exit 15 in the town of Wilton, directly north of Saratoga Springs, New York. The mall has a gross leasable area of 709,000 square feet (65,900 m2).[2] The mall's anchor stores are JCPenney (on a site originally planned for a Montgomery Ward, but never built), Dick's Sporting Goods (originally a Steinbach), Healthy Living Market, Planet Fitness (both were part of the original location of JCPenney), and HomeGoods. There are 3 vacant anchor stores that were once Sears, Bow Tie Cinemas and The Bon-Ton. In addition, it features a food court. It is currently owned by Macerich, having been purchased from Wilmorite Properties of Rochester, New York in 2004.[3][4] The Bon-Ton, originally an Addis & Dey's, closed in August 2018. On November 8, 2018, it was announced that Sears would close in early 2019, as part of a plan to close 40 stores.[5]

Movie theater[]

The mall originally had a Regal Cinemas 8-screen movie theater located on its western side operated by Regal Entertainment Group. It was replaced by a new 8-screen theater operated by Bow-Tie Cinemas, which features all digital projection and one 2,000 sq ft (190 m2) screen. The mall's new Bow-Tie theater officially opened for business on October 25, 2013.[6][7][8] It closed in March 2021 after being temporarily closed since March 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[9]
