The former Sears department store was demolished years ago and in it's place is a 160,000-square-foot entertainment center "The District". Originally the AMC theater was scheduled to open mid-2021  but despite working during the 2020-2021 lockdowns some other parameters out of the control of the contractor including inspections and permit schedules as well as supplies were affected by the City and County lock down parameters.

According to the contractor Penhall Company "was hired to complete demolition and abatement work to the former Sears store, a 150,000 square foot building which was originally constructed in 1952."  and "Demolitions required engineer plants to isolate the North side of the building from the existing Westfield Mall. The isolation was completed using a floor-by-floor method with 16,000 lbs spin aces. Once the isolation was complete, the rest of the building was demolished using a 200,000 lbs demo machine."
