Next Generation Dick’s Sporting Goods Moving into Eastwood

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.

Allure Nails & Spa is located in the Great East Plaza section of the complex, next to Buffalo Wild Wings.  The salon offers a serene, elegant atmosphere.  Its talented technicians are able to create a wide variety of designs, whether they be simple, bold or intricate.  Customers will also enjoy other pampering services, such as the salon’s signature “Lavender Stress Relief Pedicure”, featuring hot stone therapy and a rejuvenating lavender masque.

Whether you’re looking for a new style or an experienced professional who’s able to “fix” a haircut someone else botched, Above All Cutz Barber Boulevard is the place to go.   It’s located in the Boscov’s concourse inside Eastwood Mall.  This clean, modern barber shop caters to men and women of all ages but especially to children.  Kids are welcomed with free snacks and warm, friendly barbers.   Cut & color and waxing services are available for women.  On Tuesdays, Senior Citizen haircuts are only $15.  Walk-ins are always welcome.

Looking for something tasty?  Try the Amish Country Market East, located near the children’s play area.  It features a tempting array of authentic Amish-made donuts, pretzels, ice cream and other treats.   An array of savory breakfast and lunch wraps are made with pretzel dough.  The shop also offers salads, coffee and soft drinks.
