Cheltenham Mall, or Cheltenham Square Mall, is an enclosed shopping mall along Cheltenham Avenue between Ogontz Avenue (PA 309) and Washington Lane on the border of Philadelphia and Cheltenham Township, Pennsylvania. This mall opened in 1959.[1] Cheltenham Square Mall was enclosed in 1981.[4] It is generally a diverse demographic (i.e. race, age, income) and draws most of its customers from Northwest Philadelphia. The United Artists theater in the mall, which replaced an earlier AMC Theater in 1988, closed in 2008. Later it was demolished and replaced with a newly constructed Target store.
The mall was taken over by New York City based Thor Equities when Simon Property Group sold the mall in 2005 for $71.5 million.[4][5] In summer 2014, the mall was foreclosed and put up for sale. Sun Equity Partners purchased the mall for $30 million in January 2015.[5]
