In 1975, Sioux City businessman Kermit Lohry bought the building from Swift.
 He proceeded to convert it into an enclosed shopping mall, using much of the old equipment to decorate the area.
 The complex opened in 1976 under the name KD Stockyards Station.
 By the late 1970s, it housed over 60 businesses.

In 1979, the building was listed in the National Register of Historic Places, as the only major meat-packing plant remaining in Sioux City from the early 20th century.

KD Station weathered a certain amount of adversity, including the opening of the Southern Hills Mall in 1980 and the general decline of the stockyards area.
 However, in 2004, a fire that began in an outdoor electrical transformer caused extensive damage to the building; at about the same time, a major leak developed in the roof.
 The owners declared themselves unable to maintain the building, and the city declared it unsafe and unfit for occupancy, forcing the nearly 20 businesses to relocate.
 In 2006, teenaged arsonists used gasoline to start a fire on the fourth floor, further damaging the building.

In 2007, the city took ownership of the building.
 In 2010, it was demolished at a cost of over $3 million.
 The city put the vacated 5.5-acre (2.2 ha) parcel up for sale, marketing it for commercial use or light manufacturing.
 As of 2014, the site remained vacant.
