History

Fayette Mall was opened by developer Richard E. Jacobs Group Inc. on April 20, 1971, supplanting Turfland Mall as Lexington's largest shopping mall.[1] Its original anchor stores included Sears, Shillito's (became Shillito-Rike's in 1982, Lazarus in 1986, Lazarus-Macy's in 2003, now Macy's since 2005) and Stewart Dry Goods (became L. S. Ayres in 1985, Ben Snyder's in 1987, Hess's in 1988, now JCPenney since 1993). Fayette Mall was renovated and enlarged in 1993 with McAlpin's, which became Dillard's in 1998.[2]

The mall was acquired in 2001 by CBL & Associates Properties Inc. of Chattanooga, Tennessee, which classifies Fayette Mall as one of its superior shopping centers, one of a dozen "distinct, high-performing properties" in its portfolio of more than 100 malls and shopping centers.[3]

Fayette Mall's sales of $492 per square foot is the second-highest among CBL's properties.[4] As of 2007, Fayette Mall featured Script error: No such module "convert". of gross leasable area, 111 in-line stores, and 5,704 parking spaces on Script error: No such module "convert"..[5]

On February 26, 2021, the Apple Store closed at the Fayette Mall, and moved to the Summit at Fritz Farm on March 1, 2021.[9]
