The El Monte Shopping Center was a major shopping center, for decades the largest shopping center in

Bond's clothing store.[3]

In 1989 Katersky Financial bought the center and at that time tenants included a Home Club home improvement superstore (later

Thrifty Drug Stores (later Dearden's Furniture), Sizzler, and Big 5 Sporting Goods.[4]

The Sears Outlet store closed in 2012.[5]

The location now functions as a

community shopping center
with some vacant anchor stores.
