In 2014 the Shops at Sunset Place housed the Miami-area's only GameTime location.^[1] There was a Forever 21 across from a spot for a restaurant. A Splitsville Luxury Lanes and Dinner Lounge bowling alley was added in 2008. The largest tenant was a 24-screen cinema operated by AMC Entertainment with about 92,000 square feet (8,547 m²).^[2]

Prior to the building of Sunset Place, the property was the site of The Bakery Centre, which opened in 1986 on the site of the old Holsum Bread Bakery.^[3] The Bakery Centre was a retail and office complex that included a 7-screen AMC Theatres multiplex. It was demolished in 1996.

In October 2015, Simon Property Group sold the mall to Federal Realty, Grass River Property, and the Comras Company for $110 million.^[4]

In January 2021 Midtown Opportunities acquired the Shops at Sunset Place for $65.5M, a $44.5 million loss for the sellers. ^[5]
