WYOMISSING, Pa. – Store owners at the Berkshire Mall in Wyomissing say they haven’t heard much from the mall about a potential sale.
This week, 69 News has been telling you about possible changes that could lead to much of the mall being demolished.
A sale is in the works which could see Montgomery County-based Abrams Realty and Development buy the mall from New York-based Namdar Realty Group.
The new owner says he’ll tear down most of the mall, except for Boscov’s, and a new retail development would be established.
There are dozens of businesses inside the mall.
The owners of “Lounge Around Games Company” say that without much information from mall owners, they’re worried about an uncertain future.
“Especially for local businesses like us. For us to try to find another place would be very difficult, and I believe we thrive very well in this mall environment. So for us to go to like a strip mall or something like that probably wouldn’t work as well,” said Javon Phillips, owner of Lounge Around Games Company.
The developer expects the sale to be complete in March.
In the meantime, the mall remains open.
