Laguna Hills Mall is an enclosed shopping mall located in Laguna Hills, California, in southern Orange County. It is located at 24155 Laguna Hills Mall, Laguna Hills, CA 92653. It was built in 1973 and was renovated in 1994, and originally anchored by four major department stores: The Broadway, Buffum's, JCPenney, and Sears.[1] In 1991, Buffum's closed, and the store's second level was converted into an upstairs food court. The food court, which operated from 1994 to 2011,[2] was the only part of the general mall to be on the second level. The Broadway became a Macy's in 1996. There is also Laguna Hills Cinema.

In May 2013, Merlone Geier Partners purchased the mall from Simon Property Group.[3] A year later, Merlone Geier purchsed the Sears anchor store with plans to renovate it.[4] Renovation will start in 2016 and the mall will reopen in 2017 with brand new name Five Lagunas. The cinema will have 14 screens then.[5]
