Jantzen Beach Center

Jantzen Beach Center is an outdoor shopping mall located in Portland, Oregon, on Hayden Island in the Columbia River, known as Jantzen Beach SuperCenter from 1996 until about 2012. Opened in 1972 as an indoor mall, sometimes known informally as Jantzen Beach Mall, it was largely torn down in 1995–96 for big box development. The remaining enclosed portion included Ross Dress for Less, Burlington Coat Factory and Target as its anchor stores until April 2012, when renovation work began. A new one-story Target store was constructed on the property over the site of a former Barnes & Noble bookstore and restaurant, opening in October 2012.

Jantzen Beach Center opened September 28, 1972, on the site of the former Jantzen Beach Amusement Park which operated from 1928 to 1970. The C. W. Parker carousel, built in 1921, is the only surviving ride from the amusement park and was located inside the mall by the food court until 2012. One of the mall's early anchor stores, a 60,000-square-foot Liberty House which was that chain's first store in the Portland area, opened in November 1973. An 84,000-square-foot Kmart store was added in 1977. The Liberty House store later operated as Frederick & Nelson from 1979 until 1984, The Crescent until 1988 and Lamonts from then until 1994.
