German term or phrase: Adressenbildung
Ziel ist die Schaffung einer Einkaufs-Erlebnislandschaft mit hoher Aufenthaltsqualität und hohem Identifizierungspotenzial. Dabei wird eine klare, kompakte, optimale horizontale und vertikale Mall-Führung hinsichtlich gleichmäßiger Frequenzverteilung, hoher Flexibilität von Shop-/Fassadenanschnittflächen, eine Gliederung des Mall-Systems durch Adressenbildung, Plätze, Straßenabschnitte und sonstige Raumsperren sowie die Ausbildung und Integration von zwei Erlebnisräumen mit eigenen Gestaltungs- und Nutzungskriterien angestrebt.

store address identification
Explanation:
or perhaps 'individualized store identification'. In malls, 'Knotenpunkte' are called 'anchor points' , usually around the largest stores or 'anchor tenants'.

'Landmark creation' is another, but a bit presumptious.

location profiling; address profiling?

Explanation:
I'm not 100% satisfied with this answer but maybe it will help others to come up with ideas.

Aren“t they talking about establishing the shopping mall as a known or "in" location? Recognition of the location as a sort of brand (e.g. Potsdamer Platz Arkaden)?

Best of luck, MJ

Address creation

Explanation:
It seems to me that the concept is the division of the mall into sub-units on a human scale by the creation, within the larger structure of the mall itself, of distinctive "addresses" - locations, points of reference (also squares, and other divisions of space) thereby avoiding avoid inhuman, impersonal "mega-spaces".

Peer comments on this answer (and responses from the answerer)
agree Marnen Laibow-Koser: "Gliederung" is the key word here for understanding this, I believe. The closest English term would be something like "breakdown", and so Mike's interpretation makes great sense.
