Eastwood Mall to Add Next Generation DICK’S Sporting Goods Store as New Mall Anchor

Posted 

Construction has officially commenced on a new Next Generation DICK’S Sporting Goods store at Eastwood Mall in Niles, Ohio. The new, larger format store will relocate from its current 52,000 square foot building in the adjacent Great East Plaza, a fixture of the Eastwood Mall Complex since 2004, into a massive, state-of-the-art 72,000 square foot anchor store within the enclosed mall. This move represents a major investment in the local community and a commitment to providing an unparalleled selection of top-tier apparel, footwear, gear & more for athletes across the Mahoning and Shenango Valleys.

The new store format completely reimagines the traditional DICK’S layout, bringing together an evolved selection of team-sport gear across baseball, softball, soccer, football, lacrosse, and hockey. The store will also include a House of Cleats, showcasing a 360-degree view of more than 400 cleats across multiple sports, an expanded premium footwear assortment, and multiple golf hitting bays equipped with Trackman technology.

“Moving and expanding DICK’S Sporting Goods to a premium anchor position within the mall is expected to drive significant traffic, benefit all of our tenants, and further solidify Eastwood Mall Complex as the region’s premier one-stop destination to shop, dine, stay and play,” said Johnny Chechitelli, mall owner CAFARO’s Regional Director of Marketing & Communications.

 

The current DICK’S Sporting Goods location in the adjacent Great East Plaza will remain open until the new store is ready to welcome customers, with a Grand Opening celebration anticipated in summer 2026. Further details regarding the official opening date and special events will be shared closer to the opening.

The Eastwood Mall Complex is located at 5555 Youngstown-Warren Road, in Niles, Ohio. It is one of America’s largest shopping centers, with nearly 200 department stores, specialty shops, restaurants, hotels and entertainment options. The Eastwood Mall Complex is owned and managed in association with Cafaro-affiliated companies, based in Niles, Ohio.

Bigger, Bolder Dick’s Sporting Goods Coming to Millcreek Mall

It’s a famous name in sporting goods that’s already a popular destination at the Millcreek Mall Complex.  It is about to get even better.  Construction is now underway on an all-new DICK’S Sporting Goods in a space formerly occupied by the Bon Ton department store.  The new 60,000 square foot store is approximately 8,000 square feet larger than the current DICK’S location in the Millcreek Pavilion section of the complex.  It will incorporate the newest generation of fixtures, designs and branding.  The new store is tentatively scheduled to open in the summer of 2023.

Most notably, the new DICK’S also will offer a 20,000 sq. ft. outdoor turf field and running track attached to the store. When it opens later this year, it will host open play, fitness and sports clinics, and practices for athletes of all ages. In the winter months, the field will convert to an ice skating rink and offer open skate, skating lessons, stick and puck drills, and games.  This new outdoor field/rink will also allow customers to “try out” new equipment before making their purchases.

The Millcreek Mall Complex is located on upper Peach Street and Interstate 79 in Millcreek Township, near Erie, Pennsylvania.  It has been serving the community since 1975 and has been expanded and renovated numerous times, keeping it up-to-date with current regional mall uses, trends and occupancies. The complex currently comprises more than 2 million square feet of shopping, lodging, dining and entertainment.  For more information, visit www.millcreekmall.net.  Millcreek Mall Complex is owned and managed as part of the Cafaro family of companies, based in Niles, Ohio.  To learn more about the Cafaro organization, go to www.cafarocompany.com.

DICK’S Sporting Goods was founded in 1948 when an 18-year-old Dick Stack opened a bait-and-tackle shop in Binghamton, New York.  Today, DICK’S, headquartered in Pittsburgh, is the leading omnichannel retailer serving athletes and outdoor enthusiasts in more than 850 locations.  DICK’S Sporting Goods is also the parent company to Golf Galaxy, Field & Stream, Public Lands, Going Going Gone!, Warehouse Sale stores, online and the DICK’S mobile app. DICK’S also owns and operates DICK’S House of Sport, Golf Galaxy Performance Center and GameChanger, a youth sports mobile app for scheduling, communications, live scorekeeping and video streaming.  To learn more about this preeminent sporting goods retailer, visit online at www.dickssportinggoods.com.
