Officials with the Janesville Mall tease the idea of an indoor family entertainment and play center in the 100,000 square foot former Boston Store.
Mall owner RockStep Capital is working with the owners of Alabama-based Hype Indoor Adventures over converting spaces at two of its shopping malls—The Janesville Mall and The Bonita Lakes Mall in Meridian, Mississippi—into activity centers. They could include indoor climbing walls, zip lines, trampoline basketball, ax throwing, go-kart racing and other features.
RockStep hopes the project could pair with the city’s proposed indoor sports complex, which would go in a space JC Penney used to occupy.
A final decision has not been made yet.
