Pottstown Center

Pottstown Center is an outdoor shopping center in Pottstown, Pennsylvania, located at the intersection of Pennsylvania Route 100 and Shoemaker Road.
==History==
The shopping center was built in 1995, with a Walmart discount store, Weis supermarket, and Staples store as its original anchors. Other original tenants included Blockbuster, Boston Chicken, Fashion Bug, Red Lobster, and Wendy's. Arby's was added in 1999.
In the late 2000s and early 2010s, the center suffered some tenant losses; Staples, Famous Footwear, and Sleepy's moved to the new Upland Square shopping center a mile north in 2009, and Blockbuster, Fashion Bug, Goodwill, and Weis all closed their doors. It experienced some growth during this time period; the Walmart store expanded into a Supercenter in 2012, the former Blockbuster space was filled by a Sears Appliance & Mattress showroom in 2013, RadioShack and Rent-A-Center moved in from nearby shopping centers, and Great Clips and America's Best Contacts & Eyeglasses opened new locations in the center (Great Clips has since closed and been replaced by CPR Cell Phone Repair).
Between 2018 and 2019, the center was renovated and the former Weis was split between Aldi and Michaels. The former Staples store became a Crunch Fitness gym in February 2023https://www.clubindustry.com/press-releases/crunch-fitness-opens-newest-location-pottstown-pennsylvania and Bath & Body Works moved in from The Shoppes at Coventry the same month. Boston Market was evicted in October 2022 by order of the Court of Common Pleas of Montgomery Countyhttps://www.facebook.com/groups/157399414441965/permalink/2164275417087678/, with its space filled by an UrgentVet clinic in 2024.
