Lord & Taylor pulled the proverbial plug on their PHIPPS PLAZA store in February 2004. Nordstrom renovated the structure and welcomed its first shoppers in March 2005.

In a circa-2008 PHIPPS PLAZA plan, two anchor stores have new nameplates. On the northeast is the aforementioned Nordstrom. Parisian morphed into a Belk in September 2007.


The mall's front facade, which faces Peachtree Road, was renovated into an exterior-entranced Streetscape in 2015.

The shuttering of Belk, in July 2018, presented a way to expand and renovate the PHIPPS PLAZA mall, which had become physically hemmed-in after nearly 50 years in business. The abandoned Belk was knocked down and replaced with the One Phipps Plaza office tower, Nobu Atlanta Hotel & Restaurant and an upscale fitness facility.

By late 2022, the new & improved Northwest Wing was completed. Its new Lifetime Athletic fitness complex is similar to facilities recently added to Simon-owned SOUTHDALE CENTER {in Minnesota} and NORTHSHORE MALL {in Massachusetts}.
