13News Now... Then: Chesapeake's Greenbrier Mall opens in 1981

Original Air Date: October 7, 1981. One of Hampton Roads' most popular malls opened its doors for the first time 40 years ago, in October of 1981.

After Sears, one of its opening-day anchor stores, closed in 2018, the long-term future of Greenbrier Mall has remained in question.

Yes, they did build too many malls all on top of each other in that area like in so many other areas.
