Viewmont Mall cost $10 million to construct and the original anchors included Grants, JCPenney and Sears. Sears opened first at the  mall in February 1968, with JCPenney later opening in October. Grant's closed at the Viewmont Mall in 1976 and was replaced by Hess's the same year. Hess's built a larger store starting in 1987. Sears received major changes in 1993 that roughly doubled the store's size. Hess's closed in late summer 1994, and was replaced by Kaufmann's in Fall 1995. Viewmont, along with Wyoming Valley Mall was sold by Crown American to PREIT in 2003. Kaufmann's was renamed Macy's in September 2006. In 2014, the mall received significant changes including the addition  of Buffalo Wild Wings in the food court, Express, Bath & Body Works, and The Limited moving to different spots in the mall with their spaces being replaced by Forever 21 and Ulta Beauty. Sears closed in mid-2016 and was demolished later in the year. PREIT knew Sears would not remain at the mall several years before its lease expired. Dick's Sporting Goods and Field & Stream were announced as Sears replacement in April 2016 with the dual store opening in September 2017. HomeGoods opened in August 2017 next to Field & Stream, on former Sears space.
