New stores at renovating Woodfield Mall

Even in the midst of a massive, yearlong renovation, Woodfield Mall in Schaumburg is adding several new stores.

The mall has announced the addition of ivivva athletica later this summer, as well as Zara and Timberland in the fall.

They join this year's other new additions Flight 23 at Footaction, Fly Zone at Kids Foot Locker, rue21 and the first Illinois location for SIX:02.

The ongoing project, which includes a contemporary facelift of the grand court and surrounding department store wings, is expected to be complete before the 2015 holiday shopping season. Once the project is finished, it will be easier to navigate the various elevations of the mall with the addition of a new large capacity elevator and escalator, as well as the replacement of two existing elevators and improved interior and exterior directional signs.
