CBL & Associates Properties Inc. today announced the opening of the redevelopment at CoolSprings Galleria in Nashville (Franklin), Tennessee. Designed to significantly enhance the offerings at the shopping center, the redevelopment of the former Sears location includes adding a mix of new fashion stores and fine dining options as well as a new mall entrance to improve mall circulation.

Retailers now open as part of the redevelopment include: American Girl, H&M, and A’Gaci. These new stores join Belk Men’s & Kid’s store, which opened in March, and The Cheesecake Factory, which opened in November 2014. Additional planned openings this year include fine dining restaurants Connors Steak & Seafood and Kona Grill in spring 2016 and King’s, a boutique bowling and entertainment venue. All are exclusive to the Nashville market. Additionally, ULTA and a newly renovated Belk’s Women’s & Home store will open in the fall.

In late summer, CoolSprings Galleria will also welcome Zumiez, Tilly’s, and Windsor Fashions as they open new stores on the interior of the mall. Sephora recently opened in May.   

“The redevelopment of the former Sears location at CoolSprings Galleria takes one of the region’s premier shopping, dining, and entertainment destinations to even greater heights,” says Michael Lebovitz, executive vice president of development and administration. “From the market’s first American Girl, Kona Grill, and Connors Steak & Seafood to in-demand stores such as ULTA, A’Gaci, and H&M, customers can continue to expect the best at CoolSprings Galleria.”
