Located North of Foothill Boulevard between Day Creek Boulevard and Etiwanda Avenue by the Interstate 15 freeway, the 147acre project consists of residential areas, office space, retail stores, public plazas, a movie theater, and a civic cultural arts center. It officially opened October 28, 2004.The Victoria Gardens Cultural Center, which features the Rancho Cucamonga Public Library, a performing arts center, and a multi-use reception hall, is owned and operated by the city of Rancho Cucamonga and sits north of the shopping center between the two parking structures.In 2006, the former Robinsons-May store was converted to a Macy's Men's and Home Store to complement the existing Macy's. Unlike other cases where both anchors existed in one mall, Macy's did not move into the former Robinson's-May store and close its original location, because both anchors were new and the original Macy's store was not built as a Broadway store.The rest of the mixed-use development is owned by Forest City Enterprises.The mall increased the city's sales tax income by 44% in its first year of operation.Square FootageTotal: 1500000sqft. on 147acre JCPenney (128,039 sq ft.)Macy's (167,426 sq ft.,)Macy's (Men's & Home) (167,598 sq ft., formerly Robinsons-May)Bass Pro Shops Outdoor World (180,000 sq ft., The first in California.)
