Barstow Mall is a shopping mall in Barstow, California. It opened in 1975 with two anchor stores: Sears and Kmart.[2] The Kmart store was originally slated to be W. T. Grant, which withdrew from the mall plans due to the chain's filing for bankruptcy. This resulted in the mall being only the second in the country to have both a Kmart and a Sears in it. Ernest Hahn was the mall's developer.[3]
Kmart moved outside the mall in the early 1990s.[4] The Sears building was later occupied by a Big Lots discount store, which closed in 2003.[5]
In August 2010, renovations began on the mall at the Sears end for conversion to office space.[6]
