What happened
The Charleston Town Center Mall in Charleston, West Virginia, is expected to close by summer 2027. Amy Goodwin stated that potential buyers have shown interest in the property. However, Hull Property Group reported that it has not received a sale or development opportunity that has generated interest. The remaining interior stores are scheduled to close in late spring or early summer 2027 when their leases expire.
