The shops opened in September of 1976, built on land previously occupied by an oil storage tank farm, which was owned by Chevron. The mall was developed by A. Alfred Taubman, who also developed other shopping malls in the East Bay including Eastridge Center in San Jose, Stoneridge Shopping Center in Pleasanton, and the Sunvalley Mall in Concord. Some major anchors at the Hilltop Mall are Macy’s, Sears, Walmart, 99 Ranch Market, and 24 Hour Fitness.
The Shops have had their ups and downs and taking this into consideration, they have developed a redevelopment plan and it is amazing! The vision of this plan is to have a 77-acre site that is quickly evolving to emerge as a walkable, mixed-use village that will bring its trade area a new, vibrant & flourishing community destination. There will be a 16.7 million square feet of occupied building area that will include outlets & retail, dining, entertainment, office use, a hotel, and over 3,400 residential units. The shops are located in a convenient location off of I-80 in Richmond, Ca 20 miles NorthEast of San Francisco. There is a 28-minute ferry service that connects Hilltop by the Bay to Downtown San Francisco, which will drive demand for retail and residential growth!
