The company was founded in 1961 by Moses Lebovitz, Charles Lebovitz, and Jay Solomon as Independent Enterprises. In 1970, the company merged with Arlen Realty & Development Corporation, a New York-based public company with a portfolio of shopping centers along the East Coast, therefore becoming known as Arlen Shopping Center Group and then CBL & Associates in 1978 after Charles Lebovitz and five associates left Arlen.[2][3] The first mall built under the CBL name was the Plaza del Sol Mall in Del Rio, Texas in March 1979.[2] In 1993, CBL & Associates became a REIT and began its acquisition stage in 1995 with WestGate Mall in Spartanburg, South Carolina.[2] In 2001, CBL acquired 23 properties from the Richard E. Jacobs group.[2][4] In 2005, CBL opened its first mall on the West Coast at Imperial Valley Mall in El Centro, California.[2] CBL has focused on its hometown of Chattanooga as it reacquired and renovated Northgate Mall, which its predecessor had built in 1972 and later sold, in September 2011 for $11.5 million from General Growth Properties and has renovated Hamilton Place Mall several times since its 1987 opening, as the company considers Hamilton Place as its flagship property.[3][5][6][7]
