Charlottesville 2000 was an initiative of developer Lee Danielson to renovate the Charlottesville Downtown Mall as an entertainment district. With Reid Nagle as a partner, he opened a kiosk that would serve as a newspaper stand. One of the ideas was to build a six-screen movie theater on the mall. To do that, Danielson sought to open 2nd Street West crossing to one-way vehicular traffic. This was opposed by a group that went on to call itself Townwatch. [1]

Part of Danielson's vision was to attract high-end chain stores, something opposed by many in the community.
