Discover Mills

Sugarloaf Mills, formerly Discover Mills, is a 1,200,000-square-foot (110,000 m2) single story shopping mall in Lawrenceville, Georgia with over 180 specialty retailers. The mall features 13 anchors as well as a variety of theme restaurants, casual dining and entertainment venues. The mall opened in November 2001, originally as an outlet mall, but has begun to evolve into an entertainment mall, with the additions of AMC Discover Mills 18 on December 17, 2003 and Medieval Times on July 21 of 2006. The mall is also notable in that it had granted naming rights to interested companies, and was one of the first malls in the United States to do so. The Mills Corporation, the original owner of the mall, had granted the naming rights to Discover Card, and thus originally given the name Discover Mills as well as the tag line "Where Discover Card Is The Smart Choice". Simon Property Group is the current owner of Discover Mills from the Mills Corporation's acquisition. In October 2012, the 10-year naming rights with Discover Card ended, and the mall was renamed "Sugarloaf Mills," which was the mall's planned name when it was first developed in the late 1990s and named after the parkway the mall is located.

Famous quotes containing the words discover and/or mills:

    The goal in raising one’s child is to enable him, first, to discover who he wants to be, and then to become a person who can be satisfied with himself and his way of life. Eventually he ought to be able to do in his life whatever seems important, desirable, and worthwhile to him to do; to develop relations with other people that are constructive, satisfying, mutually enriching; and to bear up well under the stresses and hardships he will unavoidably encounter during his life.
    Bruno Bettelheim (20th century)

    Commercial jazz, soap opera, pulp fiction, comic strips, the movies set the images, mannerisms, standards, and aims of the urban masses. In one way or another, everyone is equal before these cultural machines; like technology itself, the mass media are nearly universal in their incidence and appeal. They are a kind of common denominator, a kind of scheme for pre-scheduled, mass emotions.
    —C. Wright Mills (1916–62)
