History

The Mall at Lexington Green opened to the public on September 11, 1986, as a two-level hybrid enclosed mall and strip mall. From 1986 to 2007 the mall saw many different in and out tenants originally anchored by Disc Jockey Music, Joseph-Beth Booksellers, and Sears Homelife. The mall space was originally very vacant with only a few businesses inside of it, but that is no longer the case. The mall stayed this way until Joseph-Beth Booksellers was recognized by Greater Lexington Chamber of Commerce as the "1989 Small Business of the Year." [1] This led to local development group Langley Properties acquiring the mall in the mid-1990s and convert most of the vacant upper and lower level spaces of the mall into space for the bookstore leaving only about seven enclosed spaces in the mall. [2] By this time another anchor CompUSA moved into the old Joseph-Beth space. By the mid-2000s the mall began to lose many tenants. Sears Homelife closed and a furniture department was reincorporated into the main Fayette Mall store. The space was later renovated and occupied by Wild Oats Markets, and later changed to Whole Foods Market. CompUSA and Disc Jockey closed in 2007 leading many of the other tenants to close their doors as well.

On April 1, 2011, Langley Properties announced that Jeffrey R. Anderson Real Estate, Inc would be handling leasing efforts as the mall will be redeveloped entirely into a lifestyle center. [3]

Popularity in Lexington

In recent years, the shopping center has grown in popularity among older teens, young adults, and middle to upper class locals that embrace the art culture in Lexington. [ citation needed ]

Tri-County Mall was a shopping mall located on State Route 747 just south of Interstate 275 in the city of Springdale, Ohio, a suburb of Cincinnati, Ohio, United States. Originally known as Tri-County Shopping Center, it opened in 1960 and has been expanded several times in its history. The original shopping center was an open-air property featuring H. & S. Pogue Company (Pogue's) and John Shillito Company (Shillito's) as the anchor stores. An enclosed wing anchored by Sears was added in 1969, followed by the enclosure of the rest of the mall. Shillito's was later known as Shillito-Rike's, Lazarus, Lazarus-Macy's, and then just Macy's; Pogue's was consolidated with L. S. Ayres and then converted to JCPenney. A mall expansion begun in 1990 and finished in 1992 added a second level of stores and McAlpin's as a fourth anchor store. The mall underwent a slow decline in the 21st century, owing mainly to the center's age and increased competition and lost all of its anchors.
