Northway Mall, rebranded in the 2020s as North Point, is a shopping mall in Anchorage, Alaska. First opened in 1980, the mall declined in popularity as other malls opened and consumers turned to online shopping; the mall was purchased by Security National Properties in the early 2000s and begun to focus on local Anchorage businesses, rather than chains. However, recession in Alaska and the COVID-19 pandemic led to further losses. Interior tenants were evicted in 2020, and in 2023 the roof partially collapsed, leading to the departure of one of the remaining two stores. Northway Mall was sold to Benderson Development in 2023, which partially demolished the central area and converted it to a shopping center with a few, free-standing stores.
