| Additional Information: | The Fox River Mall was constructed in 1984, providing the catalyst for growth that would make the Town of Grand Chute a regional hub for commercial activity. The mall is currently the largest in Wisconsin, following renovations and additions in the years 1991, 1998, 2004, and 2014. Portions of the mall’s original cruciform building are visible on the south side of the campus, featuring windowless expanses of brown brick construction with bays of multi-light glazing above the entryways. The mall’s food court, named the Northwoods Café, was designed by Anthony Belluschi Architects in 1998, and features two tiers of glazed gables that evoke a Northwoods chalet. |
