ASHEVILLE MALL in the year 2012. The big changes from the year 2000 plan are the dual-Dillard's stores and Streetscape along the east-facing facade. This was installed between 2009 and 2012. With these improvements, the complex spans approximately 1,070,300 leasable square feet. Free parking is provided for 4,000 autos.

After two major expansions, and a face lift or two, ASHEVILLE MALL eclipsed BILTMORE SQUARE, which had been its major rival. With over 100 stores and services, ASHEVILLE MALL is now the largest shopping hub in Western North Carolina and the preeminent retail venue in "AVL."
