Merge Proposed

I've expanded this with the hope that some of the info can be kept, but I think it would be better to split and merge the article.

The mall is a significant consumer outlet for and is immediately recognizable to residents of the Charlottesville/Albemarle area. It is commonly mentioned in local news articles e.g. [1], [2], and [3] (in which the mall is implicitly used as a landmark).
Fashion Square may be considered as epitomizing retail development on U.S. Rt. 29 north of Charlottesville, which has accelerated with the growth of the area's population. In the long term I think this info could be useful as part of an Economy or Development Patterns section -- cf. these sections: Richmond,_va#Recent_economic_developments, Arlington_County,_Virginia#Development_patterns, Loudoun_County,_Virginia#Economy, and the last paragraph of Washington_dc#Economy. Neither the Charlottesville nor the Albemarle County article really mentions local economic or development patterns. But both could; I think this coverage would add to their depth, and there are plenty of news stories and city/county resolutions on the subject.
Separately, I think the local reaction to aspects of the novel's premise in its historical context is notable, but maybe more appropriate for The Teeth of the Tiger article, or an Appearances in Fiction section of Charlottesville, VA.
