The Great Northern Mall in Clay, NY, will be largely demolished to facilitate a redevelopment project. Owner Guy Hart of Hart Lyman Companies announced that most of the 215-acre plot will be cleared, retaining only certain structures, including the former Dick's Sporting Goods.

Demolition could begin within two weeks, contingent on National Grid capping natural gas lines, with full completion anticipated within two months. Plans for the site include a lifestyle center featuring retail, residential units, hotels, and a medical campus from Upstate Medical University, which Hart describes as a significant development for the area.
