Additionally, a large center courtyard, originally constructed as a children's playground, was covered over to provide space for a Ruby's Diner. The renovation project also retrofitted several new stores in existing space in the northeast wing, including Michaels, Nordstrom Rack, Loehmann's, and Bed Bath & Beyond. Along with this acquisition, another major renovation of the mall was undertaken, with a new AMC Theatres 20-screen multiplex built atop the south parking lot. Westfield Group acquired the mall a year later. Robinson's had a location at the nearby Fashion Valley Mall that also rebranded to that new name. In 1993, May Company rebranded as Robinsons-May as the chain merged with J.W. This helped mitigate the effect of a Mexican economic crisis and peso devaluation, as Mexican customers, who were estimated to make up about 15% of sales, were able to obtain fewer dollars with their pesos and thus had less to spend. In 1983, the mall underwent a significant remodel, with a new northeast wing built, which also added a two-story Saks Fifth Avenue. The mall underwent its first expansion in 1975, with the completion of a new 3-story Bullock's. National General Theatres Valley Circle Theater, part of the Mission Valley West strip center, opened December 23, 1966. It was San Diego's second mall, following the opening of the College Grove Center in 1960. Presumably, in the event of a flood, only the parking garage would be flooded, with the retail level untouched. Due to its location in the floodplain of the San Diego River, the mall was designed with the stores on the level above the parking garage. Designed by the San Diego-based architectural firm Deems-Lewis, the mall contained two large anchor spaces, occupied by Montgomery Ward, and May Company, 70 inline stores, as well as a large central courtyard.
