The population of Mapleville increased by over 20% between 1950 and 1980, largely due to manufacturing. During this time, the city underwent two large urban renewal projects to reverse its decline. One project included demolishng a large portion of downtown Mapleville for the construction of several new office towers. Another project was the construction of a new shopping mall, the Mapleville Center Galleria. This project, however, proved unfeasible as most of the tenants departed for the more lucrative suburban malls.
