Owings Mills Mall is a large shopping mall in the Baltimore County, Maryland, community of Owings Mills that is owned and managed by General Growth Properties. While its main entrance is off Red Run Boulevard between Painters Mill Road and Owings Mills Boulevard, the mall is also accessible from the exit ramps of I-795. It was originally known as Owings Mills Town Center, but a new nearby development in the vicinity has now been given that name. The mall is scheduled for demolition in 2013 and will be redeveloped into a lifestyle center similar to that of Hunt Valley Towne Centre and The Avenue at White Marsh. However, Macy's, JCPenney, and AMC Theaters will remain.
The mall's current anchor stores are Macy's and JC Penney. Previous anchors were Boscov's, Lord & Taylor, Saks Fifth Avenue, and Sears. IFL (International Furniture Liquidators) is temporarily located in the space vacated by Lord & Taylor. Sticks 'n Stuff, a furniture retailer, was temporarily located in the space vacated by Sears until 2004. The mall has experienced the closure of several national stores, leaving many vacancies in this once upscale mall.
