Perimeter Mall is an upscale super regional shopping mall in Dunwoody, Georgia, a suburb of Atlanta, near the highway interchange of Interstate 285 (the Perimeter) and Georgia 400.
It is in Perimeter Center, an edge city on the DeKalb/Fulton county line. The mall has a gross leasable area of 1,554,288 square feet (145,000 m²) and is the second largest shopping mall in the state of Georgia, the largest being the Mall of Georgia in Buford.
It can be accessed by MARTA's Dunwoody station, which opened at the southwest corner of its parking lot in 1996. Today, the mall has over 200 stores and 4 anchor stores including Dillard's, Macy's, Nordstrom, and Von Maur and is managed and owned by General Growth Properties.
Perimeter Mall opened in 1971 and was the fourth mall to open in DeKalb County, after Columbia Mall in 1964, North DeKalb Mall in 1965, and South DeKalb Mall in 1968. Its original anchor stores were Rich's and JC Penney, which made it very similar in design and layout to Greenbriar Mall. Perimeter Mall was the first mall in metro Atlanta to be located outside of I-285.
