History
Washington Park Mall is a 432,303 square feet (40,162.3 m2) enclosed shopping mall in Bartlesville, Oklahoma that opened in 1984, developed by the Homart Development Company, the real-estate arm of Sears.
When General Growth Properties, formally Homart, filed for bankruptcy in 2009, the property was one of 30 spun off to investment trust Rouse Properties in 2011.[1] In 2017, Rouse put the property up for sale with an asking price of $13.4 Million. In 2021, the mall was sold to Kohan Retail Investment Group, a property group with a mixed record of improving failing malls.[2] Most of the mall is currently owned and managed by Summit Properties USA, with the exception of the Dillard's anchor store.[3]
By the end of 2017, the mall was half vacant with stores like Buckle, Cavender's, Gap Outlet, GNC, and Maurice's closing or relocating to strip malls within Bartlesville.[4] In March 2023, the mall banned minors under the age of 16 unless accompanied by a parent/guardian, blaming theft and vandalism.[5] In 2025, the mall was being improved, including having its fountain repaired, with the goal to bring in local businesses.[6]
