The original Natick Mall was developed by businessmen William Lane, Stephen Mugar, and John Brennan. Construction began in 1965, connecting two stand-alone locations of Sears and Filene's (which had opened in March and August 1965, respectively), with a 600,000-square-foot (56,000-square-meter), single-level shopping venue with 30 in-line stores.
Shopping centres with anchor stores have consistently outperformed those without one, as the anchor helps draw shoppers initially attracted to the anchor to shop at other shops in the mall. [5] Thus, a mall which loses its last anchor is often considered to be a dead mall.

Not according to the Wikipedia definition of Malls - malls may be outside and interconnected. Central Park is a single development by a single owner, it just doesn't have a roof. It is a power center by industry definition, but a Mall/shopping center by common reference.
Because of the size and complexity of the area, Framingham and Natick cooperatively operate it as a single distinct district with similar zoning. The area was formed with the construction of Shoppers World in 1951. Shoppers' World was a large open air shopping mall, the second in the US with parking surrounding the exterior of the mall. [2]
The original mall's tenants were moved into the Shopper's World complex in 1993, and the mall torn down. A new, modern two-story Natick mall with over 200 stores was built and opened in late 1994. After tenants were moved to the new Natick Mall, the original Shopper's World closed in August, 1994, and demolition occurred in the following months.
