History
Burlington Square originally opened as Holly Hill Mall in 1969, in reference to the nearby neighborhood where it was located. Its name was changed to Colonial Mall Burlington in 1999 after being bought out by Colonial Properties Trust, in an attempt to provide a uniform "brand name" to its retail properties.
A major renovation of the mall took place in 2004, resulting in changes in both its interior and exterior appearance. Changes made included upgrades to both mall entrances facing Huffman Mill Road, along with a new ceiling, skylights, and floors.[1][2]
However, Colonial opted to shed its retail holdings recently, and sold the mall in 2005 to Prime Retail, leading to its current name change in August of that year. Even so, Colonial Properties still maintains a website for the former mall's name. [3]

Future Burlington Square faces the prospect of increased competition in the form of Alamance Crossing, an 840,000 square foot open air center currently under construction at a site located less than a mile away at the corner of I-85 and University Drive.[4] The center is slated to open in August 2007, and will feature tenants such as Dillard's, Barnes & Noble, Ann Taylor Loft, Coldwater Creek, and others. Belk announced plans in summer 2006 to leave Burlington Square to the new project upon completion. [5] In late 2006, Apple House Cafeteria announced its closing, and in early 2007, JCPenney announced that it was leaving the mall for Alamance Crossing. In March of 2007, 2 long-term tenants, FYE and Kay-Bee Toys both closed with little or no warning.

It remains to be seen how Burlington Square will be able to weather the changes ahead, even with the changing retail landscape. Much of it has to do with continual growth in the area, thanks to its close proximity to the Triad and Triangle regions of North Carolina. [6] Major roads and cities in the Piedmont Triad area. ...
