'''Eastgate''' was the Chattanooga area's first regional shopping mall. Originally an open-air type center, its initial phase was completed in 1962. At this time, there was only one anchor department store [[Miller's Department Store|Miller Bros.]]. A second construction phase, finished in 1965, added two more, [[Loveman's]], and [[J.C. Penney]]. A single-screen cinema was also included. With this addition, '''Eastgate Mall''' encompassed 650,000 leasable square feet, and -for a time- was Tennessee's largest shopping center. The mall was enclosed in the early 1970's.
