Rivergate Mall was a super-regional shopping mall located in Goodlettsville, Tennessee, United States, just outside of Nashville, the state capital of Tennessee. Opened in October 1971, the mall featured 1,129,035 square feet (104,890.8 m2) of gross leasable area. It once held up to 80 stores and restaurants. Rivergate Mall opened with three anchor stores—Cain-Sloan, Castner Knott, and JCPenney—and later expansions added a food court and a new anchor space which was occupied by Sears. The mall underwent a decline in tenancy beginning in the 2000s, with several stores relocating to nearby shopping centers such as Opry Mills and the Streets of Indian Lake. The final interior tenants of the mall closed in December 2025, with the mall itself closing in February 2026. The mall was located in the core of a shopping district that is shared by the city of Goodlettsville and the Nashville neighborhood of Madison. This area is colloquially referred to by locals as "Rivergate," after the mall.
