Renovated Lake Ridge Shopping Center to Have String of New Plants

LAKE RIDGE, Va. — We have a better look at what the Dillingham Square Shopping Center in Lake Ridge will look like when renovations are completed later this year.

The shopping center just off Old Bridge Road will include a new outdoor facade and new landscaping.

“The design is by landscape architect Michael Spitzer of Landgarden. This fall, the center will be landscaped with approximately 1,400 new plants, including Crepe Myrtles, Red Maples, Ginko trees, Ink Bery, Hypericum, Smokebush, Itea, Liriope, Old Gold Juniper, Salvia and others,” stated shopping center spokeswoman Sheryl Siemeck in an email.

The shopping center is home to anchors Golds Gym and Food Lion, as well as the popular Brittany’s Sports Bar and Grill.

Now known as Festival at Old Bridge, the center will undergo a name change to Dillingham Square after renovations are completed to match the name of the street in which the shopping center is located.

In May, shoppers were alarmed to see that trees had been cut down on the property as renovations began.
