Biltmore Square Mall is a mall located just off I-26 on Brevard Road (North Carolina Highway 191) in Asheville, North Carolina. It has two anchors: Belk and Dillard's Clearance Center. In Summer 2008, Dillard's converted to a clearance center.
In March 1998, the mall management (along with other plaintiffs) did attempt to resist annexation of the property on which they reside into the city of Asheville. The attempt was unsuccessful.
In November 2006, Symphony Property Group and two local investment groups (collectively calling themselves Biltmore Eight, LLC) purchased the shopping center with the assistance of a third party loan. Thereafter the managing firm disclosed that the owner decided to expand the property in the first quarter of 2007 by an additional 83,000 sq ft (7,700 m2).
Cinebarre, a new concept in movie theaters and restaurants, was unveiled in the Biltmore Square Mall. Food, beer, and wine are served before and during the screening of films in the theater.
Famous quotes containing the words square and/or mall:
“The square dance fiddlers first concern is to carry a tune, but he must carry it loud enough to be heard over the noise of stamping feet, the cries of the caller, and the shouts of the dancers. When he fiddles, he fiddles all over; feet, hands, knees, head, and eyes are all busy.”
—State of Oklahoma, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
“A father ... knows exactly what those boys at the mall have in their depraved little minds because he once owned such a depraved little mind himself. In fact, if he thinks enough about the plans that he used to have for young girls, the father not only will support his wife in keeping their daughter home but he might even run over to the mall and have a few of those boys arrested.”
—Bill Cosby (20th century)
