Pecanland Mall

Pecanland Mall is a one floor enclosed shopping mall located in Monroe, Louisiana. The mall was named Pecanland because the land on which the mall is located was originally a pecan farm. The mall is on Interstate 20 near U.S. Highway 165, the two major highways in the area.
Pecanland Mall has 4 open anchor stores: Belk, Dillard's, Dick's Sporting Goods, and JCPenney. The mall also features a 450-seat food court.

== History ==
The mall opened on July 24, 1985.
In 2002, General Growth Properties acquired the mall for $72 million. Mervyns, an original tenant, closed in 2005 and became Burlington Coat Factory one year later.
In October 2012, Dick's Sporting Goods opened its first location in Monroe, LA.
In September 2018, Sears closed its Pecanland Mall location, and with Burlington Coat Factory closing just a few months later.
In March 2019, one of the biggest turns of events happened when Nickels and Dimes Inc of Celina Texas announced that Tilt Studio would make a grand return to the mall in the former spot of the abandoned Burlington. This marked Tilt's grand return to the mall, as its parent company originally operated Tilt Arcade at the Food Court in the late 1980s to 2012. 
On August 12, 2020, Stein Mart filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Later, it was announced that all Stein Mart locations would be closing permanently.
