History
Northridge Lakes Development, approximately two square miles in dimension, is bordered by the corner of North 76th street and Brown Deer Road in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. The Grand Opening occurred in August of 1972, three years after its sister mall, Southridge Mall opened in 1970. Both were financed and owned by Senator Herb Kohl and part of the Taubman Centers. Northridge Mall, and nearby Northridge Lakes development, a residential development consisting of a mix of inventive multi-family residences, were never well received by Milwaukee, and nearby Ozaukee County. The pioneering Mall was planned and designed as a regional center, consisting of a two level mall with four anchors: JCPenney, Sears, Boston Store, and Gimbels.
