What Stays Open as Neshaminy Mall Enters Its Final Weeks

Feasterville Trevose, PA · October 10, 2026

Crisp autumn air has settled across the neighborhoods this morning, setting up ideal conditions for Saturday wandering. Grab a second cup of coffee before heading out to today's open houses, community markets, and midday fire truck demonstrations.


The Lead

As October enters its second weekend, the countdown is running for the interior concourse at Neshaminy Mall. After a 58-year run that began in August 1968, the region’s pioneering enclosed shopping center is preparing to shutter its indoor corridors at the end of the month, paving the way for partial demolition. For nearby shoppers who grew up tossing coins into the fountains or meeting friends under the skylights, the immediate change is sharp, but the property will not go entirely dark. Outer anchors with dedicated exterior entrances—including Boscov’s, the AMC 24 cineplex, and Barnes & Noble—will remain operational throughout the transition. Township officials and developers plan to repurpose the 91-acre parcel into an open-air mixed-use town center featuring housing and dining, with the landmark bronze Chief Tammany statue carefully preserved for the site's next chapter.
