Montgomery Ward Store #2236 Glendale, Arizona. Valley West Mall. Store closed in 1992 and was replaced by two new stores. One at Arrowhead Towne Center Mall in Glendale and one at Westridge (later Desert Sky) Mall in Phoenix. The Valley West store then became Outlet World, new discount concept store for the company. After Montgomery Ward Outlet World closed, the abandoned store and mall was used to film the motion picture Eight Legged Freaks. After filming, the store and the mall were demolished. Today, it is the location of strip center with a Super Walmart, Dress for Less, and a Lowe's in the previous location of the Wards store.
