History
The mall was opened to the public on September 28, 1990, and was the second SM Supermall to open after the then-largest SM Supermall in the country, SM North EDSA. It was initially named SM Centerpoint as it is located very near the tripoint of the City of Manila, Quezon City and what was then the municipality of San Juan. The mall featured several amusement venues, namely Quantum, Worlds of Fun and a two-storey annex building. To celebrate its 15th anniversary, the mall was rebranded SM City Sta. Mesa since it borders the Santa Mesa district of Manila despite being under the territorial jurisdiction of Barangay Doña Imelda, Quezon City. On September 26, 2009, the basement level was flooded when Typhoon Ondoy (Ketsana) battered the capital. The appliance center, supermarket, food court, and other retail stores located at the basement level were heavily damaged. The basement level was temporarily closed for several days. The mall is currently under renovation, which started with the demolition of the mall's cinemas for conversion to stadium seating (with the exception of the two remaining cinemas, Cinemas 5 and 6 which was on regular operations until March 14, 2020 (the start of the COVID-19 pandemic in the Philippines), construction of Director's Club cinema, and replacement of the mall's facade. A portion of the mall's former cinema wing now houses the new SM Food Hall, replacing the former SM Foodcourt at the lower ground level, along with leisure tenants. The SM Food Hall opened on May 15, 2021, while the cinema will reopen by phases, with the regular cinema opening on November 30, 2021 (November 29, 2021, for the early release screening of Marvel's Eternals). The Director's Club Cinema opened on May 15, 2022. Amenities
