Tewksbury Mills is a proposed mall by the Mills Corporation in Tewksbury, Massachusetts, U.S. It was to be around one million square feet and contain two skating rinks.
Information[edit]
The mall is proposed to be an enclosed mall with two levels. It is also supposed to be an entertainment complex. Originally, the mall was planned to have between 1,100,000 and 2,200,000 sq ft (100,000 and 200,000 m2) of gross leasable area. Eventually the size of the mall was shrunk down to between 750,000 and 800,000 sq ft (70,000 and 74,000 m2) of gross leasable area. It would be smaller than other surrounding malls, including the Burlington Mall, and Pheasant Lane Mall, two of the closest ones. The Pheasant Lane Mall would be 232,191 square feet (21,571.2 m2) bigger while the Burlington Mall would be 555,072 feet (169,186 m) bigger.[1] Additionally, The Mall at Rockingham Park, northern New England's largest mall, is located in nearby Salem, New Hampshire.
Some of the amenities that would become part of the mall would be a movie theater complex, and a two-surface ice skating facility. Additionally, the company indicated that they would allow residents of the town to use the rink at a reduced rate.[1]
One of the key features of the mall would've included the construction of the long delayed, long-awaited Lowell Junction on nearby Interstate 93. The junction has been proposed for the location for over twenty years. This interchange would directly linked the mall with the industrial park across the highway and the mall to the highway. Additionally, it would keep mall traffic off local roads.[2]
Eventually, the Simon Property Group bought out the Mills Corporation in 2007. Known development of the mall ceased at that time, but work on the Lowell Junction has been restarted. Nothing has really restarted on the project as the Simon Group built the Merrimack Premium Outlets in 2012, about 25 minutes away in Merrimack, New Hampshire.
