| - Cotswold Village Shops used to be Cotswold Mall, which opened in the 1960s and was considered the first suburban enclosed shopping mall in the area (Charlottetown Mall, which stood where you'll now find the Metropolitan complex, was Charlotte's first enclosed mall). Over the years Cotswold has been remodeled and reshaped into the open-air shopping center we have today.
There's a Harris Teeter at one end and a Rite-Aid and a UPS store at the other, with shops including ULTA, PetSmart, Marshall's, Binders art supplies, and Books-A-Million in between. With Starbucks and several nice casual restaurants for your shopping fuel (I love Salsarita's and Wolfman Pizza, personally), you could spend half a day or more here. Be prepared for parking lot frustration, but isn't that true of practically any place these days?
