Hickory Ridge Mall is a one-level, enclosed, super-regional shopping center located in Memphis, Tennessee at the intersection of Winchester Road and Hickory Hill in the southeast part of Shelby County in West Tennessee.
The mall was struck by a tornado on February 5, 2008, which caused damage to the center court atrium and adjacent tenant spaces.
What appeared to be a bleak end to the Hickory Ridge Mall soon transformed into a hope of life and vibrancy, when in 2008, World Overcomers Outreach Ministries Church intervened and embraced a vision to progressively purchase the property, totaling $2.7M, including the Macy’s and Dillard’s parcels.
The future for the Hickory Ridge Mall, as the “New Towne Centre” for the community can only usher in positive change, restoration, revitalization, economic empowerment, personal and family enrichment, partnership, and a unified community via neighborhood involvement.
