BUTTE - The old Herberger’s building at the Butte Plaza Mall has been locked up and abandoned for years now, but city officials say this part of the mall will soon be history as a developer plans to demolish this part of the building soon to make room for new grocery store.

“The new mall development is set to kickoff this month with some demolition plans, so they will be making way for a new build and new development will occur,” said Butte Community Development Coordinator Karen Byrnes.

Dickerhoof Properties, which bought the mall last year, has not yet announced what grocery store will fill that spot once demolition is completed. The city said the few stores still operating in the rest of the mall will remain open during the demolition.
