Ohio Valley Mall

Ohio Valley Mall is a one-story enclosed shopping mall in Richland Township, outside St. Clairsville, Ohio. It was opened in 1978 and was developed by the Youngstown, Ohio-based Cafaro Company, which continues to own and manage it. The mall currently has four open anchor stores which are Boscov's, Dunham's Sports, Marshalls, and Michaels. It contains more than 100 stores and services. The mall currently has two vacant anchor stores which were once Macy's and Sears.

History
The Ohio Valley Mall opened on October 4, 1978. The mall opened with five anchor stores which were JCPenney, Kaufmann's, L.S. Good, Montgomery Ward, and Sears.

In March 1982, L.S. Good closed and Stone & Thomas opened in its space in August that year. In April 1983, Montgomery Ward closed and was replaced by K-mart in November.

Stone & Thomas moved in 1996 into a larger location within the mall. Burlington Coat Factory opened in 1997 in the space Stone & Thomas occupied prior to moving. In October 1998, Stone & Thomas was converted to Elder-Beerman due to the latter acquiring the former.

Burlington Coat Factory closed in 2000 and was replaced by Steve & Barry's in 2005. Kaufmann's was converted to Macy's in September 2006. In 2007, JCPenney moved to Triadelphia, West Virginia, and Levin Furniture opened in its space in 2009. Steve & Barry's closed in late 2008 due to bankruptcy and was replaced by Crafts 2000 in 2009.

The Cafaro Company announced in 2012 plans to renovate the mall's interior to add a new anchor store. Levin Furniture closed in late 2012 and in February 2013, it was announced that it would be replaced by Boscov's. The former Levin Furniture was renovated in 2013 to include the spaces Books-A-Million, Victoria's Secret, and other tenants occupied prior to moving. In October 2013, Boscov's opened in the former Levin Furniture. Crafts 2000 closed in July 2015 and was replaced by Pat Catan's that September.

Elder-Beerman and Kmart closed in March 2017. The former Elder-Beerman was subdivided and renovated in April 2017 to add Marshalls, which opened in September. Half of the former Kmart was subdivided and renovated in March 2019 to add Dunham's Sports, which opened in October, and Five Below, which opened in June 2020, while the other half of the former Kmart was demolished for a Hampton by Hilton hotel, which opened in April 2021. In June 2019, Pat Catan's closed due to Michaels announcing that it would convert the store in August. In July 2019, Sears closed and its space has been used by Spirit Halloween on a seasonal basis since then.

In January 2020, it was announced that Macy's would be closing its store in March as part of a plan to close 125 stores nationwide. The former Sears was used as a COVID-19 vaccination clinic from February to May 2021.
