History
Originally an outdoor mall, the owners spent $5 million to enclose and expand the East Salem site in 1970. Montgomery Ward then moved from downtown Salem to the newly renovated mall. In 1972, the mall was to be one of the first locations in Oregon for an automated teller machine not located at a bank branch, which created controversy at the time. About 1976, the Taco Time chain experimented with selling alcoholic beverages at their Lancaster location.
A 17-year-old woman was kidnapped from Lancaster Mall in 1977, as was a 19-year-old woman in 1982. In May 1982, an ex-Salem police officer shot and killed two people at the mall before killing himself in the parking lot. The mall banned the Salvation Army from soliciting there in 1988 in an effort to uniformly ban all solicitations at the mall.
In 2008 Lancaster Mall achieved EarthWISE Certification through Marion County Public Works-Environmental Services. Lancaster Mall has committed to recycling, reducing waste, saving energy, conserving water and practice environmentally preferable purchasing in their operations.
Shops
Anchors at the mall include Sears, Macy's, Jo-Ann Fabric & Crafts, Best Buy, Pier 1 Imports, Burlington Coat Factory and Regal Cinemas.
