Chesterfield Mall furniture, fixtures and more to be liquidated at weekend sale as shopping center enters final weeks

ST. LOUIS, Mo. (First Alert 4) – As storeowners prepare to close up shop at the Chesterfield Mall, items from the shopping center’s heyday are up for grabs.

Pickle Crick Hill Mercantile, an antiques vendor in the mall, is liquidating much of the former furnishings, fixtures, tools and more that have sat in storage for several years.

Pickle Crick will hold a liquidation sale this weekend at the former Macy’s building from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Saturday and Sunday.

Sweeney said that while the sale will include a few other liquidation items, around 80 percent of the sale will be former mall memorabilia.

“Most of the draw we get is from small businesses that can repurpose some of the equipment here,” he said.

The last store leases at the mall will expire at the end of August in preparation for a scheduled demolition in October.

Susan Blandford, the owner of the Teachers’ Recycle Center, has been moving her supplies to a new location in the Barn at Lucerne in Ballwin.

“We’re staying in the mall until the very end because we’re paying rent to the very end,” she said. “We’re in a new chapter, and so’s the mall.”

The Staenberg Group, who owns the mall, plans to start construction on the new development sometime in 2025 once the site is demolished.

Tim Lowe, the company’s senior vice president of development, said a recent dispute involving Dillard’s had been resolved, allowing the project to continue with the retailer’s building left intact as part of the venture, called “Downtown Chesterfield.”

The $2 billion mixed-use development will span 117 acres, with more than 45 million square feet of retail space.

“It’s a great location in a great market,” Lowe said. “A project like this that brings in new residential, new offices, new community is really unique and different.”
