Twelve Oaks Mall is super-regional shopping mall located in Novi, Michigan, a suburb of Detroit. The mall is located on the Northeast corner of Interstate 96 and Novi Road. Taubman Centers is the owner and manager of the mall, and it is anchored by Macy’s, Nordstrom, Lord & Taylor, JCPenney and Sears. The mall was one of three super-regional Taubman-built malls built in the late 1970’s in Metro Detroit. It is among the largest malls owned by the Taubman Corporation and the largest shopping center in Michigan.
In 2005, The Taubman Corporation announced a $63 million expansion project, which includes a 97,000 sq ft of common space, 30 new stores, a 60,000 sq ft (5,600 m2) expansion and major renovation to Macy’s, a new 165,000 sq ft
Nordstrom store. The expansion will make Twelve Oaks Mall one of Taubman’s largest mall properties. Construction began in February 2006, with Clark Construction Company taking on the project.
In September 2007, the new Nordstrom opened with over 40 small specialty shops including Martin + Osa, the first in Michigan. The new anchor store was built on the southeast side of the mall, adjacent to the existing Lord & Taylor store.
