History

developed Mount Berry Square, which opened in 1991 with JCPenney, Sears, Belk-Rhodes and Hess's, all four of which replaced existing stores throughout Mount Berry. Both JCPenney and Belk-Rhodes featured new store designs that placed a greater emphasis on fashion than the previous stores. The Hess's store closed in 1993, with Proffitt's replacing it. This store became a second Belk and has since closed. It is now occupied by Dunham's Sports, which opened in late 2013. On January 12, 2016, Sears announced it would close its doors on Saturday March 26, 2016. On June 4, 2020, it was announced that JCPenney will be closing around October 2020 as part of a plan to close 154 stores nationwide. After JCPenney closes, Dunham's Sports and Belk will be the only remaining anchor stores left.
