Gurnee Mills
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Gurnee Mills is an indoor outlet mall, located in Gurnee, Illinois about halfway between Chicago and Milwaukee, Wisconsin. It is a single-level Z-shaped mall. At 1.8 million square feet of gross leasable area, it is the fourth largest mall in Illinois. [1] [2] It opened on August 8, 1991 by the Mills Corporation. [3]
Anchoring the mall are Bass Pro Shops, Bed Bath & Beyond, Burlington Coat Factory, Circuit City, H&M, JCPenney Outlet, Kohl's, Marshalls/HomeGoods, Off 5th, Sears Grand, Sports Authority, TJ Maxx, Value City and VF Factory Outlet.
Theme park Six Flags Great America is located near the mall, and both receive tourist and tour bus traffic.[citation needed]
Until 2006, the Serpent Safari store housed the heaviest living captive Burmese Python, which weighed 403 pounds. It was found chopped up in a field, and the owner was charged with animal neglect.[4]
Former anchors include Computer City (now Circuit City), Filene's Basement, Lord & Taylor Clearance Center, Phar-Mor, Sears Appliance Outlet, Spiegel (now Kohl's), SYMS (now VF Factory Outlet), and Waccamaw Pottery (now Sears Grand).
