The Deptford Mall is a major shopping destination in Deptford Township, Gloucester County, New Jersey, United States. It is the seventh largest mall in the state of New Jersey and the second largest in the state's South Jersey region. Owned and managed by the The Macerich Company, it is the county's only indoor regional shopping center. The fully enclosed mall opened in August 1975 with three anchor stores — Sears, Bamberger's and Wanamaker's — and 150+ specialty stores. Today, the mall is anchored by Boscov's, J.C. Penney, Macy's and Sears. The mall has a gross leasable area of 1,300,000 sq ft , making it the largest mall in the Gloucester County region, and placing it in the top eleven among the largest shopping malls in New Jersey. In late 2007, there has been speculation of adding additional retail space including an all new Neiman Marcus department store as well as additional space for retail stores. The expansion has not yet been finalized, but rather speculation has been surfacing the South Jersey Region. The expansion would create itself an upscale atmosphere containing many high-end stores and a few restaurants that still have to be mentioned. The additional 160,900 square feet would bring the only Neiman Marcus department store in the South Jersey Region as well as the new 40,000 square feet of extra retail space. <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org" target="new">Source</a>
