== History ==
At the time it opened in August 1959, the open-air Wonderland Center was anchored by Montgomery Ward and Federal's. Junior anchors included the Woolworth's and Kresge dime stores, and Wrigley's and Food Fair supermarkets.
Federal's closed in 1980, and most of the store reopened as an A.J. Foland catalog showroom. The rest was reconfigured in July 1982 to the Eaton Place Food Court. The mall was enclosed in 1984, sold to Schostak Brothers in April 1983, and renamed Wonderland Mall in November 1985. Designer Depot was added in the former Kresge.
A second expansion, underway in late 1988, added Target (opened October 8, 1989) and the AMC Theatres Wonderland 6 (opened October 27, 1989). OfficeMax and Dunham's Sports were added in the early 1990's. Around this time, Service Merchandise replaced the former A.J. Foland.
An Entertainment Wing remodel commenced in 1997, in the southwest corner of the complex. It included Jeepers! (opened October 31, 1997), and Woolworth's was replaced with an F.Y.E, which opened in November 1997. The Eaton Place Food Court was replaced with the Boardwalk Cafe, which, when dedicated in November 1998, included Burger King and Sbarro.
Montgomery Ward was expanded in 1999, and Service Merchandise closed their store during that same year. Old Navy and Bath & Body Works opened as well. Just two years later, Montgomery Ward was out of business as the mall began dying.
Wonderland Mall closed in early 2003, with only the exterior-entranced Dunham's Sports, OfficeMax and Target stores remaining open. In spite, Dunham's Sports and OfficeMax closed in 2004. The Target building was the only remnant of the mall after it was demolished in 2006 to be replaced with Wonderland Village.
A new Target building opened on July 25, 2007, and Walmart Supercenter opened on August 8, 2007, despite community opposition. Initial inline tenants of Wonderland Village included GameStop, Verizon Wireless, LA Fitness, Chili's and Potbelly Sandwich Shop.
