Overview

• South Saturn Ridge LLC, a Walmart-affiliated entity, applied for $7.5 million through Pennsylvania’s 2025 Redevelopment Assistance Capital Program to demolish Monroeville Mall.
• The application describes full removal of mall structures and a replacement anchored by retail, dining and entertainment uses with public open space.
• Planned site preparation includes grading and stabilization plus modernization of water, sewer, electric and telecommunications infrastructure.
• Walmart bought the 186-acre property earlier this year for about $34 million, including the main mall, an adjacent strip center, a front expansion and land parcels for Best Buy and Firestone.
• State officials will evaluate the request in the coming months, no timeline or detailed designs have been released, and local reporting suggests demolition could begin as early as 2027 if approvals are secured.
