  History of the Natick Mall - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Natick Mall, located in Natick, Massachusetts, was one of the fist enclosed shopping malls in the United States, opening in 1966.
It was a one-story building, which was anchored by a Sears at one end and a Filene's at the opposite end, and had a two strips of stores in between with a main corridor separating the two sides.
Additionally, the mall was showing signs of physical deterioration.So in 1993, the existing mall was demolished and rebuilt as larger, modern, two-story mall, with over 160 stores (compared to the original, which only had 17 stores) and 4 department store anchors (rebuilt Sears, Filene's, Lord and Taylor and Macy's), which opened in 1995.

Buoyed by a victory at Town Meeting, the owners of the Natick Mall are seeking a special permit for a project to add 220 luxury condominiums at the mall.
While the retail portion of an expansion project at the mall is already underway, the residential portion has been debated by town officials and residents for months now, so Munnich said he doesn't expect any surprises.
Mall officials said this summer that some of the condo units could cost in the millions, and local middle-aged empty-nesters had shown interest.

 Welcome to the NECP Internet Portal
When the new Natick Mall was built the owner needed a sufficient number of parking spaces that could easily access all mall tenants and allow for future expansion at the mall.
The owner needed to create new parking, alleviate traffic on Route 9 for the new Natick Mall, and maintain shopper access to the existing Filenes and Sears (that were in use at the old Natick Mall, and planned to stay open during the new construction).
Once Phase one was completed and ready for parking the existing Natick Mall structures were demolished and the construction of the final half of Garage "C" and the entire construction of Garage "B" were completed.

 The Natick Sprawl | Universal Hub   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-23)
Here in the "Golden Triangle" west of Boston, the proposed Natick Mall expansion is planned as a more-of-the-same-old enclosed shopping mall experience, sited in a particularly pedestrian unappealing way surrounded, of course, by a vast sea of asphalt.
Even existing retailers in the space are complaining that the plan to build a separate addition is pedestrian-hostile, offering a potentially dangerous and certainly off-putting way of getting from the new to old shopping areas.
Elsewhere in America, though, the big trend is away from enclosed malls in favor of so-called "lifestyle centers" – an open-air shopping experience that tries to create a town-square-like "sense of place" and ambiance that encourages strolling and lingering.
