NewPark Mall opened in 1980 with Macy's and Sears. A 1985 expansion added Mervyns, which relocated from the Fremont Hub. Emporium-Capwell was added as in 1989 (having just relocated from next to Washington Hospital, now Washington West), followed by JCPenney in 1991. The Emporium store closed and became Target in 1996. Old Navy, which also move from Fremont Hub, was added in 2000. It closed in 2005 and became Steve & Barry's in 2007. After Mervyns closed in 2007, it became Burlington Coat Factory in 2010. Target relocated to the Pacific Commons Shopping Center in Fremont, California in 2012 and was replaced by AMC Theatres on January 28, 2016.
In 2015, Sears Holdings spun off 235 properties, including the Sears at NewPark Mall, into Seritage Growth Properties.
Two pizza restaurants opened in 2017 as part of the ongoing renovations taking place at NewPark Mall.
On June 28, 2018, Sears announced that its store would be closing as part of a plan to close 78 stores nationwide. The store closed in September 2018.
JCPenney closed in April 2019 as part of a plan to close 27 underperforming stores.
Burlington also moved to Pacific Commons Shopping Center in 2020.
In July 2021, The Newark City Council and Brookfield Properties approved plans for a 319-unit apartment complex on the Mall's property along with a new 162,000 square-feet Costco on the southeast side of the Mall at the former JCPenney and Burlington Coat Factory site. The Costco store had a grand opening on November 18, 2023.
This leaves Macy's as the remaining anchor, along with AMC Theatres, Jack's Restaurant & Bar, John's Incredible Pizza Co., and 24 Hour Fitness.
