Patch Poll: How Cool Will the Ice Skating Rink be for the Charlestowne Mall?

People keeping tabs on the redevelopment of the on East Main Street know the management is pursing a more entertainment-based venue for the site.

As evidence of that plan for more entertaining attractions, signs posted on one large section of the mall proclaim the planned ice skating rink.

Recently, a mall spokesman told St. Charles Patch that, while the intended opening date for the rink is still this spring, the location of it will be moved from the east side to the west side of mall, near the former Sears store.

The idea is to group all entertainment options together in Charlestowne. Both a mini-golf location and the Classic Cinema theaters are found in that half.

We’d like to know what you think? Does the idea of cutting across the ice make a future mall visit more attractive for you?
