A $124 million loan for a large mall in Westbury, Long Island, that was home to bankrupt retailers Fortunoff and Circuit City, is in default.

The 10-year-old, interest-only loan on the 521,486-square foot mall, the Source, was due in March, but was not repaid and was placed in default, according to Trepp, a firm that tracks the debt market for commercial mortgages.
