Charlottesville Downtown Mall meets Apple?

I am going to spread a little rumor here...

Our Downtown Walking Mall in Charlottesville is expanding and part of this expansion is a 100-room boutique hotel.

They actually broke ground on this last week.

Well Rumor has it that many fine chains have been inquiring about our little gem of an area and one such store is Apple.

Is our downtown about to get a growing spurt? I think it is and I am not sure it is what Charlottesville really wants to happen.

There is always a lot going on behind the scenes and this expansion is one of those things.

What are your thoughts on the Charlottesville Downtown Mall expanding?
