The Mall at Fox Run, formerly Fox Run Mall, is a shopping mall in Newington, New Hampshire, just north of Portsmouth. Its main anchor stores include JCPenney, Macy's Men's & Home Store (formerly Jordan Marsh) and Macy's Women's (formerly Filene's). At 603,618 square feet (56,077.9 m), it is New Hampshire's fourth-largest mall, with 84 shops, all on one level. Completed in 1983, this mall functioned mainly as a successor to the smaller and dated Newington Mall, which has since been converted into a big box retail center.
For many years, the Mall at Fox Run had four anchor department stores: Sears, J. C. Penney, Macy's (formerly Jordan Marsh), and Filene's. The Filene's brand was discontinued following the Federated and May merger. Fox Run was one of a small number of malls where the former Filene's (or Lord & Taylor) store was converted into a second Macy's store. The other malls that have done this are the Cape Cod Mall in Hyannis, Massachusetts, and the Northshore Mall in Peabody, Massachusetts. This gives Macy's at Fox Run a total area of nearly 140,000 square feet (13,000 m), on par with many of the intermediate-sized Macy's stores nationwide, and makes Macy's the largest department store (in total square feet) in the mall.
In 2015, Sears Holdings spun off 235 of its properties, including the Sears at the Mall at Fox Run, into Seritage Growth Properties.
On October 15, 2018, it was announced that Sears would be closing as part of its plan to close 142 stores nationwide. The space has been empty since 2019.
The mall was originally managed by Jones Lang Lasalle, and from 2011 through 2017 by Simon Properties. From January 1, 2018 until August 3, 2023, the mall was leased and managed by Spinoso Real Estate Group.
Since then, it has been acquired by Massachusetts-based property management group Torrington Properties for $17.5 million dollars. In addition to the mall, Torrington also owns the adjacent Newington Park Shopping Center, which they took ownership of in 2021.
