    Puente Hills Mall and its famous parking lot sold for $115 million last week.
    The City of Industry’s mall, fictionally known as the Twin Pines Mall, was the backdrop of the iconic “Back to the Future” scene, where Marty McFly and Doc Brown travel through time in their DeLorean “time machine” sports car.
    Fast forward from 1985 to the present, and the mall is on the cusp of a new future, with a new owner. Though that future is a bit of a mystery without a new time machine.
    RCB Equites in L.A.’s Mid-Wilshire district and Real Estate Development Associates, LLC, of Newport Beach, recently obtained a $115 million acquisition loan to purchase the 56-acre City of Industry property.
    “We are thrilled about the opportunity to transform Puente Hills Mall into a vibrant, modern business generator that aligns with the evolving needs of the City of Industry,” said Jason Krotts, founder and principal of Real Estate Development Associates, LLC, in a statement Monday.

    I used to work in that mall in the end of 2009 for the holidays and the beginning of 2013 at that time the mall had a lot of life left but also was the time the majority of stores were begging to shut down. I opened my first department store card at that Macy’s and sears card.the army recruiter center was a pizza place.i went back to that mall in 2021 and was really shocked how empty and deserted the mall looked and now hearing the news of the mall makes it even sadder

    So strange to be old enough to remember the PH mall being built and now its potential end. I shopped there with so many loved ones that are gone now. We were once carefree youngsters in the early 70’s riding our skateboards, meeting girls and buying cool clothes. RIP to all those that have gone ahead.

    Thanks for this and it makes me sad. I heard it is because there are 2 other big malls close by and this mall is losing the competition. In our area in Northern California, we only have one big mall so it is still ok. They don’t have any major malls to compete with. Location is very important too because our mall has a Safeway right next door too. It also has a good food court, dining, entertainment and other things besides just shopping. Malls need to adapt to survive and not have big malls to compete with.

      @@AdventurezwithDavid thanks for being a good sport. God only knows how many goofs I have made in my life. But about the possible loss of the mall. My suspicion is there’s foreign investors involved. I have seen pronouncements of plans by foreign investors before and oftentimes those plans fizzle out and nothing happens. Municipalities get burned from such failures. So personally I will believe the plans when the structures are demolished. Until then… things will continue as they have been.

Whoever bought it shouldn’t try to bring it back, those days are gone and the demographics have changed quite a bit. Walmart + Costco + Home Depot are the big retailers in this area now.
