Almost nothing about this mall online besides its fansite, but plenty of news clippings exist here. Ten Pound Hammer, his otters and a clue-bat • ^{(Otters want attention)} 05:20, 21 January 2011 (UTC)Reply

Penn-Can Mall → Driver's Village – Historical mall articles usually take the current name if there is currently another business in the building. For instance, NetPark Tampa Bay not East Lake Square Mall, Wonderland Village not Wonderland Mall, et al. The only exceptions seem to be if the property is demolished or abandoned, such as Forest Fair Mall. As Driver's Village is the current name of the mall's former occupant, I think the precedent of NetPark Tampa Bay should be applied here.

Comment OP cites no sources. Do recent sources use "Driver's Village" or "Penn-Can Mall"? See WP:COMMONNAME and WP:NAMECHANGES. 162 etc. (talk) 17:42, 10 November 2024 (UTC)Reply
This Google News search shows considerable usage for "Driver's Village". I get far fewer results for "Penn Can Mall", most of which are nostalgia articles or things like DeadMalls.com. Ten Pound Hammer • ^{(What did I screw up now?)} 22:47, 10 November 2024 (UTC)Reply

@TenPoundHammer: I have moved the page. Can you please perform the necessary post-move cleanup on the article? —CX Zoom[he/him] ^{(let's talk • {C•X})} 19:25, 2 December 2024 (UTC)Reply
