In 2004, the mall was renovated. The renovations included adding skylights, new stores, and new floor tiles. After the renovations were complete, the mall was sold again in 2005. This is when the mall's name was changed to Burlington Square Mall. Currently owned by Jones Lang LaSalle, the mall is located at 180 Burlington Mall in Burlington, North Carolina. Jones Lang LaSalle is a management company, and it is one of the largest third-party managers of regional malls in the United States.
