NORFOLK, Va. — A new look for Norfolk’s Military Circle Mall is on the minds of some developers, including one of Hampton Roads' biggest celebrities.
“When it opened, it was the premier mall in the region. Since then, additional malls have come on and retail has changed," Jared Chalk, Director of the city's Economic Development Authority told 13News Now.
This week, the City of Norfolk announced a shortlist of development groups that are in the running to restore Military Circle Mall and the surrounding areas. The complex is located at the crossroads between Virginia Beach Boulevard and Military Highway.
