The mall is named after the city it was built in, Greenwood. The city is in Johnson County in Indiana. The city of Greenwood shares its borde with the Indian’s state capital, Indianapolis. It is the most populated suburban area of the Indianapolis Metropolitan area. The city stands on land originally occupied by the indigenous Lenape people. Following the signing of the 1818 Treaty of St. Mary’s between the Lenape tribe and the European settlers, the first cabin was built by settlers John B. and Isaac Smock.
