  • Where did the statement "The center was constructed in the 1960s." come from? The area along Fieldstown Road where this shopping center is located didn't exist until the mid-1980's when I-65 was completed through Gardendale and Fieldstown Road was rerouted and became a four-lane (really 5 if you count the middle turn lane) road.
