It is built on the former site of the Ever Gotesco Grand Central that caught fire in 2012, and is the mall's third acquisition from Ever Gotesco Malls, having previously acquired Ever Gotesco Ortigas (and reopened as SM City East Ortigas) and its standalone mall near the Monumento roundabout, establishing SM Hypermarket Monumento.

It is the 2nd SM Supermall in Caloocan and the 78th overall.
