White Marsh Mall

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

White Marsh Mall is a shopping mall in the unincorporated community and new town of White Marsh in Baltimore County, Maryland. From 1972-1981 the planning and development of the White Marsh Mall occurred, with the Rouse Company as owner and developer on land rented from Nottingham, the site developer. In July 1973, Sears committed as an anchor store. In 1981, most stores opened. In 1992, Hecht's replaced Hutzlers. The White Marsh Mall is one of the largest regional malls in the Baltimore area, with 5 anchor stores and 190 specialty shops in about 1.4 million square feet (130,000 m²). In 2006, it was announced that Boscov's department store will be replacing a vacated Macy's after Hecht's parent, the May Company, merged with Macy's parent company, Federated Department Stores (Macy's moved from its original location to the more prominent Hecht's location after Hecht's closed). The Mall also contains a JC Penney store.

The mall is anchored by JCPenney, Macy's, Macy's Home Store, Boscov's, and Sears. An Ikea store is on the mall property. The open-air Avenue at White Marsh shopping center is located adjacent to the mall.
