Dunham’s Sports will take Sears space at Regency Mall

A second anchor vacant space at Regency Mall in Racine will be filled, turning more than 100,000 square feet of retail space.

Dunham’s Sports will take the former Sears space, that 89,000-square-foot store has been vacant since January 2014.

According to the mall, owned by CBL & Associates Properties Inc., Dunham’s Racine location will be Wisconsin’s 20th. It will offer a full line of traditional sporting goods and sports equipment, as well as active and casual sports apparel and footwear. Dunham’s also includes hunting goods and golf shop.

Developers recently shared plans for a party supply store, fabric and crafts store and Ross Dress 4 Less to split space inside Regency Mall’s other vacant anchor, a former JCPenney.
