The Mall at Greece Ridge is located in Greece, a suburb of Rochester, New York, and managed by Wilmorite Management Group LLC. It contains 140 stores and restaurants in the main complex, with 10 big box retailers including Dick's Sporting Goods, Bed Bath & Beyond, Barnes & Noble, Michaels, Burlington Coat Factory, Old Navy, Macy's Home, and a free-standing Target.

The mall is near the center of a long line of plazas, chain hotels, restaurants, and car dealerships which continues for several miles in each direction on West Ridge Road (New York State Route 104).

The mall began as 2 shopping malls: Greece Towne Mall, which opened on May 1, 1967 and Long Ridge Mall, which opened in 1969. Long Ridge Mall had five anchors: Sears, Woolworth, J. B. Hunter (later J. C. Penney), McCurdy's (later Kaufmann's, now Macy's), and B. Forman (later Kaufmann's Home Store, now Macy's Home Store). The Greece Towne Mall had a Sibley's (briefly Kaufmann's, then The Bon-Ton), a National Clothing (location unknown), a Loblaws (later Circuit City) and (after an expansion in the early 80s) a Gold Circle (later Hills, then Caldor). The Gold Circle building was razed and replaced by Hoyts Cinemas (now Regal Theaters). The Sibley's/Bon-Ton building was razed in 2014 to create a restaurant and high end clothing wing after Bon-Ton left the Rochester area. Both malls competed against each other until March 15, 1994 when the malls merged to form The Mall at Greece Ridge Center.
