Northline Mall was a shopping mall in the Northline area of Houston, Texas, United States, at the northeast corner of Interstate 45, and Crosstimbers Road. It is the new location of Northline Commons.




History


Boston, Massachusetts-based Berenson Associates Inc. developed the mall in the 1960s. Northline Mall opened in 1963 as one of Houston's first premier weather-controlled malls.
On January 31, 1997, a 20-foot wall on the south end of Northline Mall, where the former Joske's building was being demolished to make way for the incoming Magic Johnson Theatres cinema, collapsed, killing three people.
Beginning in the 2000s Northline Mall was redeveloped from a traditional mall to an 850,000-square-foot (79,000 m2) open air "power center" consisting of "big box" retail and general merchandise stores. Eastbourne Investments, a New York City real estate fund, bought a 50 percent equity stake in Northline on December 31, 2004. Berenson hired Fidelis Realty Partners, a firm in Houston, to redevelop the mall and repopulate it with tenants.
Walmart purchased 19 acres (77,000 m2) from the owners for a Supercenter, located at Crosstimbers and Fulton, adjacent to new multi-tenant retail buildings. Houston Community College also acquired land for a new campus on about 14 acres (57,000 m2) along the Fulton side of the property.
