Greenwood Mall is an enclosed shopping mall serving Bowling Green, in the U.S. state of Kentucky. Opened in phases between 1979 and 1980, the mall comprises 100 stores, including four anchor stores: Dillard's, J.C. Penney, Macy's and Sears. It also includes a food court, an Old Navy and the first Dunham's Sports in the state of Kentucky. The mall is owned and managed by General Growth Properties. ==History== Construction began on Greenwood Mall in 1977. The mall's first phase opened on September 12, 1979, comprising anchor stores J.C. Penney and Ben Snyder's and more than 50 inline stores. Castner Knott, which operated a store at Bowling Green Mall at the time, moved from there to Greenwood Mall in 1980. In 1986, plans were announced to relocate Sears from a freestanding store in downtown Bowling Green to a new store at the mall. The store opened in October 1987. Also in late 1987, Hess's purchased the Ben Snyder's chain and converted all nine of its stores to the Hess's name. Hess's closed this store in March 1993. It was demolished in late 1995 and replaced with a two-story Dillard's, which opened in September 1996. Castner Knott added a second floor to its store in mid-1996, in addition to opening a separate home goods store near the food court. Following the 1998 purchase of the Castner Knott chain, Dillard's abandoned the store that it had opened in 1996 and began moving into the Castner Knott building.〔 Dawahares, a regional chain based in Lexington, Kentucky, replaced the Castner Knott home store in August 1998, and Dillard's reopened in the former Castner Knott building in January 1999. In March of the same year, the original Dillard's building reopened as the second Famous-Barr department store in the state of Kentucky. This store was converted to the Macy's nameplate in September 2006.〔 The front end of the mall was expanded in 2004, adding a LifeWay Christian bookstore and an Old Navy, the latter of which opened in August of that year. Dunham's Sports opened its first Kentucky location at the mall in July 2006, replacing storefronts previously occupied by Lane Bryant and an auxiliary Dillard's store. Several new stores opened at the mall between 2006 and 2007,including Charlotte Russe, Vanity and Pac Sun, while Forever 21 and Bath & Body Works both relocated to newer stores within that timespan. Steve & Barry's opened in the Sears wing in early 2008; the store remained open after the chain's first round of closings in September, but closed in 2009. Ulta replaced Dawahares, and Shoe Dept. Encore replaced the Steve & Barry's. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Greenwood Mall」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
