May 2015 Galleria opening targeted for H&M

International clothing giant H&M will open at the CoolSprings Galleria -- its second Nashville area retail location -- in May 2015, according to a release.

Construction on the 23,969-square-foot space at the mall, owned by CBL & Associates Properties Inc., will begin this summer. H&M, which will have both interior and exterior entrances to the facility, will be located within a space that is part of the redevelopment of a former Sears store. The clothing store will be joined by the state's first American Girl store, also slated to open in May 2015.
