History
William C. Weaver Jr. and W.H. Criswell, two real estate developers from Nashville, Tennessee, first proposed to build Green Hills Village in 1953. Their plans called for a 25-store shopping mall. The firms selected a site along Hillsboro Pike (US 431) and Abbott Martin Road, an area which their research determined had the most population growth between 1940 and 1950. The original plans were for a 135000 sqft strip mall with Castner Knott and Gus Mayer department stores. Other tenants included Woolworth and Kroger.

The mall has undergone several renovations and expansions since its opening in 1955 as an open-air strip mall. The original layout contained 112,400 square feet (10,442 square meters) of retail space and included Woolworth and Walgreens. Cain-Sloan (which became Dillard's in 1987) opened a stand-alone store at the west end of the mall.

In 1998, a new development emerged adjacent to the mall, a Regal Cinemas 16-screen megaplex. Regal also opened an indoor amusement park, "FunScape", which closed in 2000 when Regal pulled the plug on the concept. Castner Knott became Proffitt's, and later Hecht's.

A new Hecht's store was built in 2004. Hecht's became Macy's in 2006.

A brand new Nordstrom store, Tennessee's first, opened in 2011 next to Dillard's at the mall's entrance facing Abbott Martin Road.
