A major portion of Willow Grove Park Mall has been put up for sale as part of a debt offering tied to the property, according to Philadelphia Business Journal.
According to reporting, the portion for sale at 2500 W Moreland Road includes several major retailers and restaurants such as Macy's, Nordstrom Rack, The Cheesecake Factory, Sephora, Apple, and Bath & Body Works.
The section being marketed totals about 725,000 square feet and is owned by Pennsylvania Real Estate Investment Trust (PREIT), a Philadelphia-based mall operator.
The sale comes after a $170 million loan tied to the property matured. The lender, PGIM, a subsidiary of Prudential Financial, is now selling the debt associated with the mall. According to the report, a buyer could acquire the debt and take control of the property through a process known as a deed in lieu of foreclosure.
The mall spans roughly 1.14 million square feet overall. The section being offered covers about 62 acres, includes 12 vacant storefronts, and features a 664-space parking garage.
A future owner could consider replacing part of the mall’s parking area with residential housing or additional retail space, according to the report.
Built in 1982 and renovated in 2001, Willow Grove Park Mall recorded nearly 5.2 million visits in 2025, making it one of the most heavily visited malls in the Greater Philadelphia region.
