Nice Mall: The Fashion Mall at Keystone at the Crossing - Sak's, Crate & Barrel, Pottery Barn, White House/Black Market, bebe, Cole-Haan, J Crew, Banana Republic, Ann Taylor, MAC, and a bunch of other stores I can't think of right now. Coming soon: Nordstrom

Yucky Malls: Washington Square and Lafayette Square malls. Gang Banger Central.

I grew up near Indy and I love the Fashion Mall. I also like Circle Center (I think that's what it's called...we walk through it when it's cold and we're going to Colts games). I remember going to Washington Square mall when I was little...it was just starting to go south at that point.

Circle Centre still has decent shopping (Nordstrom, Carson Pirie Scott, Ann Taylor H&M), but it's overrun with shady teenagers and some gang bangers on the weekends. I tend to shop there on weeknights.

Washington Square and Lafayette Square malls are not-so-affectionately called Washington Scare and Lafayette Scare. I can't remember when I have last shopped at either place.

Now...how about NASHVILLE malls? Any Nashvillians here? Surely Cool Springs is not the top mall...I mean, we have most of the stores here in the Decatur/Huntsville, Ala., area. Please give me a reason to drive to Nashville for the day!:D


Green Hills mall! :D

Definitely Green Hills... I know they've got Tiffany & Co and I'm pretty sure Louis Vuitton is going in (if it's not already there).

Cool Springs is one of the nicer malls... but not the top.

I'm ready to see what they are gonna do with the Bellevue Mall. I remember back in the day when we went there all the time because it was about 10 minutes from the house. But, when Cool Springs came in, it took all the business away. But, from the plans I've heard, they are planning on tearing it down and doing "The Avenue" kind of plan... like the one in Destin and Avenue @ The Crossing in Collierville, TN (outside of Memphis).

Cool Springs is a little more suburban - tons of outlying shopping and kid-friendly stores. Green Hills is more upscale and quiet - Louis Vuitton, Tiffany, Ann Taylor, etc. There are also a lot of boutique stores within walking distance, so check out Bandywood St. or the Hill Center, as well, if you're in the area. Opry Mills has a ton of outlet stores (including Saks!) and different kinds of stores. It is also great if you just want to walk around and kill some time. However, it can get crazy-busy with tourists on the weekends. Our yucky mall is Hundred Oaks - it is scary.
