Retailer will occupy space last home to Z Gallerie

(Editor's note: This article has been updated with the specific Amazon retail store.)







Amazon Books is planning a retail space in The Mall at Green Hills.

Amazon and mall officials declined to comment, but GeekWire.com reports the store will be an Amazon Books.

According to a Metro document, New York-based TPG Architecture is handling the design of the space and previously designed the interior of an Amazon Books store.

Other Amazon retail stores include Amazon Go, Amazon 4-Star and Presented by Amazon.



Franklin-based Bacon Construction Co. is serving as the contractor. A permit, valued at about $490,000, has been issued showing the store will span about 4,600 square feet. Z Gallerie previously operated from the space Amazon will take.

The effort to get the retail store operational comes after Seattle-based Amazon announced in November 2018 plans to establish a Center for Excellence in downtown's Nashville Yards, a move that will bring an estimated 5,000 jobs and represent a $230 million investment (read here).
