History
The original mall, the north wing, was opened in 1975 with Belk, J.C. Penney and Sears. In 1990, a new wing was built, expanding the mall southward to include Ivey's (this store was signed as Ivey's but, due to an acquisition by the parent company, opened as Dillard's), Thalhimer's (converted to Hecht's in 1992, and to Macy's in 2006) and a new food court.
Because of this design, one must go through J.C. Penney to cross from one wing to the other. In addition, the mall is built into the side of the hill; patrons enter through the first floor on the east side of the mall, but must enter on the second floor on the west side. Hanes Mall is two stories throughout, with the exception of Belk and Macy's, which each have an additional floor.
The road that loops the mall's parking lot is known as Hanes Mall Circle and is the address for many outlying businesses including McDonald's, Dick's Sporting Goods, Golden Corral, Texas Roadhouse, Carolina Ale House, Olive Garden, BJ's Restaurant and Brew House, and Red Robin. There are five roadway entrances into the mall parking lot, one off of Silas Creek Parkway, two off of Hanes Mall Boulevard, and two off of Stratford Road. Hanes Mall also had a four-screen General Cinema movie theater until October 10, 2000; it stood at the spot that is now home to the Texas Roadhouse restaurant. Golden Corral is in what used to be the parking lot next to the theater. Golden Corral has the theater's old address which is 180 Hanes Mall Circle. The theater closed after the lease ended. The theater was at Hanes Mall for 25 years and was one of the original buildings at the mall.
Hanes Mall has the Piedmont Triad's only locations of upscale stores, It features a number of national retailers. The Wake Forest University Deacon Shop also is located at the mall on the lower level of the north wing just outside Belk.
A large, working carousel is located on the lower level. The mall is currently owned and operated by CBL & Associates Properties, Inc.
An H&M store opened in November, 2011. This is the second store in the Carolinas, the other being in Raleigh.
Hanes Mall was referenced in the lyrics of the Ben Folds Five song "Michael Praytor, Five Years Later" : "At Hanes Mall parking lot at 5am I saw him sleeping in his car".
