City View Center

The shopping center opened in 2006, after two years of construction. After the big-box stores opened, construction began outside the main plaza for additional restaurants and retail, such as RadioShack, Applebee's, Fatburger, Qdoba, Steak n Shake, Ruby Tuesday, and a FirstMerit branch. The first store to close was Jo-Ann Fabrics on April 23, 2008. On September 15, 2008, Walmart announced the immediate closure and abandonment of their store due to structural concerns related to methane gas and settlement issues beneath its store site. Following Walmart's closure, PetSmart announced on October 2, 2008 that they would also close, as that chain specifically connects a number of its store locations to that of Home Depot, which never broke ground, violating PetSmart's leasing conditions. Circuit City then followed with a closure of their store on December 31, 2008 as part of its nationwide liquidation. Bottom Dollar Food opened in that space in late November 2009.
