Portland's Lloyd Center to Close by Year-End Amid Redevelopment Plans
Lloyd Center in Northeast Portland will close by the end of the year as owners move to demolish the mall and redevelop the site into 14 parcels, prompting frustration from local businesses and longtime patrons who value the mall as a community space. While supporters hope for adaptive reuse and new amenities in the future, no official closing date beyond year-end has been set and planners say there will be no more holiday seasons at the mall.
