Village Mall Complex

== Village Mall ==
=== 1978-2018 ===
The Village Mall opened on May 23, 1978 in the heart of Village, Minecraft. The mall is 2 minutes away from West Coast, Minecraft so it was basically the mall to them as well. The mall was built on the former site of Village Plaza, where the mall converted some of those stores from the plaza into the mall space. The Village Mall's anchors were, Sears, Village Library, Linens 'N Things, and Village Cinemas. The mall also had a Famous Dollar location inside which was the first Famous Dollar in mall location. In 2010-2014, the mall was struggling since stores like Vasi Play Button, Macy's, FYE, GNC, Club Express, & TILT Family Amusement had all left the mall. In 2014, Village Cinemas & Village Library had both left the mall which was a big impact on it. However in 2015, the mall slowly revived back when a JCPenney, Hallmark, & Flower Shop were added to the mall. In 2017, the mall announced a big remodel is coming, adding a food court, and a bazaar court to the mall. The mall revived the whole mall and made it more crowded then empty.
