History
edit
Grand Teton Mall opened in 1984 with The Bon Marché, JCPenney, and ZCMI. A Sears store was added a short time after, relocating from the now-defunct Country Club Shopping Center.
In 2001, ZCMI was rebranded as Dillard's following the chain's acquisition of four stores in Idaho and Utah.[3] In 2005, a remodel of the mall added a new mall entrance and a Barnes & Noble store which relocated from a nearby shopping center. In 2005, The Bon Marché was rebranded as Macy's.
On November 8, 2018, it was announced that Sears would be closing as part of a plan to close 40 stores nationwide.[4] The store closed on January 20, 2019.
On January 5, 2021, it was announced that Macy's would be closing as part of a plan to close 46 stores nationwide.[5] It closed in March 2021. In 2021, a prep school was announced to be occupying the space of the former Sears, with construction starting soon after. The new school, Alturas Preparatory Academy, opened in August 2021.[6] On February 3, 2022, Dick's Sporting Goods announced it would be occupying the former Macy's, which would involve the demolition and replacement of the entrances. It opened on August 12, 2022.[7]
