Stony Point Fashion Park is an upscale outdoor shopping center in Richmond, Virginia that opened in 2003.

Anchor stores include Saks Fifth Avenue, Dillard's and CineBistro, with one vacant anchor spot last occupied by Dick's Sporting Goods.

Stony Point is the only mall in the region that offers a dog-friendly environment along with comfort stations located throughout the center.

On August 15, 2018, it was announced that Dick's Sporting Goods would be closing in September 2018.

Rivalry with Short Pump

The mall was the result of a rivalry between mall developer Taubman Centers and ForestCity, both who sought to build a new upscale center in Richmond. The battle was eventually settled in court, which ultimately saw Taubman building Stony Point, and ForestCity building the rival, two-story Short Pump Town Center, which is nearly two times the size of Stony Point. Short Pump broke ground in November 2000, but Stony Point didn't break ground until February 2002. Stony Point finally opened on September 18, 2003, the day Hurricane Isabel made landfall in nearby Outer Banks.
