roads into a portmanteau. The original owner of the shopping center was the Randhurst Corporation (a joint venture of Carson Pirie Scott, Wieboldt's, and Montgomery Ward). At the time of its 1962 opening, it was the first enclosed regional mall in the Chicago metropolitan area and the largest enclosed air-conditioned space in the United States. Most of the original mall building closed in 2008 and was demolished in 2009. The land was redeveloped as Randhurst Village, an open-air mixed-use shopping center. Currently owned by DLC Management, Randhurst is the location of national and regional retailers, several restaurants, second-floor offices, a 140-room hotel and a 12-screen cinema. It is now anchored by Macy's, Costco Wholesale, and AMC Theatres. Other stores include Home Depot, Jewel-Osco, PetSmart, and TJ Maxx among others.
