NASHVILLE, Tenn. – Dec. 5, 2017 – In December 2007, on the site of a former H.G. Hill Food Stores, H.G. Hill Realty Company opened Hill Center Green Hills, its flagship 240,000 sq. ft. mixed-use lifestyle center comprised of retail, dining and office space. Modeled after a tree-lined main street with a mix of traditional storefronts and masonry patterns, the center was designed to ensure that future phases and renovations would be easily integrated into the landscape.
“As one of the first modern multi-use developments of its kind in the Nashville area, our vision was to create an outdoor lifestyle center with an emphasis on customer and tenant convenience, along with connectivity, pedestrian access, and outdoor comfort and green spaces,” said Jimmy Granbery, chairman and CEO, H.G. Hill Realty Company. “It has been tremendously rewarding to watch the success of our tenants unfold over the past 10 years, and we’re particularly excited about the changes taking place as we look towards the future.”
The second phase of the center kicked off with the opening of Pottery Barn and Pottery Barn Kids in April 2016. Additional phase two enhancements include lululemon’s store growing in size to 3,654 sq. ft., and Oak Hall’s expansion to a 10,000 sq. ft. flagship format that will be completed in spring 2018. Updates to California Pizza Kitchen and Zoe’s Kitchen are also planned for 2018.
“In addition to serving as a model for multi-use development throughout the Nashville area, H.G. Hill Realty Company has a long established history of investing in our community through the gifting of land and providing monetary support to numerous deserving organizations. We congratulate them on this milestone,” said Mayor Megan Barry.
Barry will join H.G. Hill Realty Company officials, board members and more at a special anniversary event on Dec. 6 that will include the presentation of a donation to The Nashville Food Project in support of their capital campaign, which includes expansion of their service to the community over a three-year period. Development plans include a new headquarters building to be located at 5904 California Ave., Nashville, TN, 37209, as well as a new community farm off White Bridge Road.
Retail shops and restaurants at the center will also recognize the milestone with a long weekend of anniversary specials from Dec. 7 – 10. See hillcentergreenhills.com for additional information.
