== History ==
The Barton Creek Mall was opened in 1981 The mall was originally anchored by Sears, JCPenney, Montgomery Ward, Foley's (now Macy's), Dillard's, and Austin-based Scarbrough's department store. In November 1981, the mall became the first in Texas to have Braille and bold print signage throughout the center.
A renovation in 2003 added a Nordstrom department store in the place of a Montgomery Ward which had gone out of business two years prior. Further renovations occurred in 2013, which included a redesigned food court. The mall also has an AMC Theatres.
In 2015, Sears Holdings spun off 235 of its properties, including the Sears at Barton Creek Square, into Seritage Growth Properties. On October 15, 2018, it was announced that the Sears store would be closing as part of a plan to close 142 stores nationwide.
In 2019, the mall's owners, Simon Malls, embarked on a renovation, which included a new paint scheme, flooring, LED lighting, glass handrails, as well as exterior additions such as canopies, fire pits, and turf areas. The renovation also included the addition of a co-working space near Nordstrom, which includes workstations with televisions and charging stations.
