History
The Rogue Valley Mall was built in 1986 near the interchange of Interstate 5 and Oregon Route 62 (Crater Lake Highway), near the intersection of Oregon 62 and Oregon Route 99. Early anchor stores included Mervyn's, Montgomery Ward, JCPenney, and Meier & Frank.[citation needed]
In 2001, the first anchor closed when Montgomery Ward filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy. Meier & Frank Home Store took tenancy of the vacated lower level, while Copeland Sports occupied the upper level. When Meier & Frank was bought by Federated Department Stores, the stores were rebranded as Macy's and Macy's Home, respectively. In August 2006, Copeland Sports filed for bankruptcy and was bought by Sports Authority. After Mervyn's pulled out of Oregon in 2007, the vacant space was bought by Kohl's, leaving JCPenney as the only remaining original anchor.
Linens-N-Things operated a large store between Mervyn's and Macy's Home Store until the company went bankrupt in 2008, after which the space was occupied by Bed Bath & Beyond.[citation needed]
The Rogue Valley Mall is home to the last remaining Sam Goody store in the world, as well as the last Orange Julius in the state. On September 9, 2015, the first In-N-Out Burger in Oregon opened on the mall grounds along Crater Lake Highway.
On May 18, 2016, it was announced that Sports Authority would be closing all stores, including the Rogue Valley Mall location. The store closed in August 2016 and was replaced by Macy's Backstage in 2019. On February 5, 2024, the mall's management was assigned and acquired by Spinoso Real Estate Group.
