As reported on News Center 7 Daybreak, some major changes could be coming to two shopping staples in the Miami Valley.

TRENDING STORIES:

As reported on News Center 7 at 5:30, property records show Elder-Beerman was sold for $2.5 million at the Dayton Mall.

Miamisburg Springboro Mall Anchor LLC bought the former Elder-Beerman on April 10 after being a staple in the Miami Valley for 100 years.

“It would be great to see this place hopping again,” said Rich Coldwell. “I’m kind of old school, if I buy something, I want to try it on.”

The Elder-Beerman stores closed in 2018 after its parent company declared bankruptcy.

In addition, the Mall at Fairfield Commons is also for sale.

As previously reported by News Center 7, Washington Prime Group (WPG) is selling this mall and other malls in Ohio and Indiana.

A company spokesperson confirmed to News Center 7 that it plans to sell the remainder of its properties as part of its “multi-year journey.”

It’s unclear what changes would be made at the former Elder Beerman at the Dayton Mall.

While a sale for Fairfield Commons has not been made, we will continue to follow this story and let you know when it does.
