Surrounding area of Short Pump

Surrounding the mall, there are several strip malls, other stores, and restaurants within walking or short driving distance. These are located on the Town Center property, however not a part of the mall itself. Notable locations surrounding the Town Center include: Barnes & Noble, Chipotle, and Red Robin. Locations such as these are listed on the mall's store directory despite not being attached to the mall itself[2].

Rivalry with Stony Point

Following a disagreement with Taubman Centers on a possible mall development project, Stony Point Fashion Park was developed as a direct competitor and opened in 2003 in the same month that Short Pump Town Center opened. It is smaller but of the same upscale style as Short Pump Town Center. The mall was opened on September 17, 2003, one day before Hurricane Isabel made landfall in nearby Outer Banks, NC. Both malls were declared a huge success and have drawn major national chains and retailers from around the world.

The Short Pump Express

The Short Pump Express is a trackless train that connects various points within Short Pump Town Center. Although marketed at children, the service is open to people of all ages. Service began in 2007. The trains are black, with passengers carts either being dark green, red, or navy blue. The fare for the train is $3.00, which offers unlimited rides on the train for a 24-hour period. The service also allows passengers to purchase monthly passes.
