Crystal River Mall

Crystal River Mall is an enclosed shopping mall in Crystal River, Florida, United States. It opened in 1990 and is anchored by Rural King.

Edward J. DeBartolo Corporation proposed Crystal River Mall in 1988, with an announced opening date of mid-1990. The mall opened on October 17, 1990, with guest appearances from Phyllis Diller, Jack Jones, and The Lettermen. Upon opening, it included three anchor stores: Belk-Lindsey, Sears, and Kmart, with approximately 85 percent of the inline retail space occupied. The mall's floor plan was described by a DeBartolo spokesperson as "a giant wheel with spokes", with a food court occupying the center. It also featured a 65-foot-high fabric roof, which required an exception from city council. J. Byrons had originally been proposed as the fourth anchor. Instead, the fourth anchor site was sold to J. C. Penney, which opened on September 30, 1992. Regal Entertainment Group added a movie theater to the mall in 1998. OfficeMax opened in the south area of the mall in 1999.
