Potomac Mills to expand footprint

Woodbridge, Va. -- Indianapolis-based The Mills, a Simon Property Group company, said that Potomac Mills, the largest outlet and value retail shopping destination in Virginia, will soon expand its footprint with the addition of an exterior transformation and two new restaurants: The Cheesecake Factory and Bobby’s Burger Palace.



The project also includes the relocation of Saks Fifth Avenue Off 5th and the introduction of Buybuy Baby and Christmas Tree Shops.



The new freestanding restaurants, as well as a third dining option to be announced soon, will be located in a new plaza on the south side of the property adjacent to Potomac Mills’ main entrance between AMC Potomac Mills 18 Theatres & IMAX and Costco. A courtyard will link the restaurants and provide access to Potomac Mills’ retail offerings.



The exterior renovation to the south side of the property is slated for November 2012 completion. New design, landscaping, lighting features and updated signage will be included in the refresh. Construction is slated to begin in late May or early June.
