The shopping center itself opened in 2008 on site of the former Home Depot. The former 128,000 sq.ft. store was demolished and replaced by a 111,800 sf. plaza with a smaller parking lot. 

Christmas Tree Shops and Bed, Bath & Beyond opened in the new plaza. A third retailer could join the two stores later but as of 2020 the remaining parcel is still vacant. This site is located alongside the Spaulding Turnpike, at the end of Durgin Lane after passing by the Durgin Square (Shaw's) and PepBoys. It is connected to Gosling Avenue via a small private roadway leading to Motel 6.

In April 2023, Bed Bath & Beyond filed for bankruptcy and confirmed it would close all remaining stores, so the Portsmouth location likely closed in 2023. As of 2025, the property is vacant. The remaining parcel that was meant for a third store was never developed. There are some rumors that Costco could make a comeback to the NH Seacoast.
