Nike emphasizes the move to the Cool Springs Pointe development north of Moores Lane is only for the time being and that it plans to return to the flooded mega-mall once renovations and repairs are complete.
The iconic shoe giant is the latest retailer forced to find space after the May floods. A number of tenants have relocated to Lebanon's Premium Outlets – which changed its name from Prime Outlets after being acquired by Opry Mills parent Simon Property Group last week.
Some tenants appear ready to weather the closure – Bass Pro Shops has committed to hundreds of thousands of dollars in repairs since the flood, for example – but Simon has repeatedly declined to name any retailers who are looking to relocate, although certainly such a move is easier after last week's Lebanon acquisition.
