Founded in 1896 by H.G. Hill, Sr., H.G. Hill Realty Company began as an extension of his successful grocery operations. Recognizing the importance of property ownership, he started acquiring the locations of his stores, which sparked the company's evolution into a prominent real estate entity. Over the years, as the grocery business flourished, so did the real estate portfolio, evolving into a diversified and expansive management operation. The company was officially incorporated in 1926, and Mr. H.G. Hill, Jr. continued to develop and acquire properties, embracing the concept of neighborhood shopping centers prevalent in the expanding Nashville area.
Today, H.G. Hill Realty Company manages over 2.5 million square feet of real estate, predominantly in the Nashville area, offering various retail, office, and mixed-use properties. The company's commitment to community engagement is evident through its philanthropic initiatives, including land and monetary gifts to numerous local charities. Notably, their flagship project, Hill Center Green Hills, not only serves as a premier shopping destination but also stands out for its sustainable design, receiving recognition in an international pilot project to evaluate sustainable landscapes.
With a focus on innovative development and community relations, H.G. Hill Realty Company continues to thrive under modern management that respects its rich legacy while driving future opportunities in real estate. The upliftment and revitalization of neighborhoods through thoughtfully designed spaces highlight the company's enduring mission of creating community and supporting local growth.
