== History ==
Northfield Square opened on August 1, 1990, at the intersection of Illinois Route 50 and Larry Power Road, just north of the Interstate 57 interchange. The original anchors were Carson Pirie Scott, JCPenney, Sears, and Venture. When the mall opened in 1990, it was 40 percent vacant. In 1994, Comfort Inn opened outside the mall. In 1997, Movies 10 Opened To The Public. That same year, Panera Bread was built outside of the mall. The first chain came to the mall in 1998, when Venture, a St. Louis-based department store chain, fell into bankruptcy and closed in the summer. In 2006, Best Buy replaced Toys R Us which was located outside the mall. In the fall of 2012, Ruby Tuesday closed its doors. That same year, the mall was 11.7 percent vacant. 
On June 20, 2018 it was announced that Express Factory Outlet would open in the mall. The store would open next to Carson Pirie Scott. Around the corner from Daily Journal near JCPenney will be the new Willow SPA and Barbershop On The Square, right next to Paul Mitchell - The School. On January 4, 2018, it was announced that Sears would be closing as part of a plan to close 103 stores nationwide. The store closed on April 9, 2018. On April 18, 2018, it was announced that Carson Pirie Scott would also be closing both locations on August 29, 2018 as parent company The Bon-Ton Stores was going out of business which left JCPenney as the only anchor left.
However, on June 4, 2020, it was announced that JCPenney would close as well as part of a plan to close 242 stores nationwide, leaving the mall without any anchor stores.
