Kimco unveiled plans in February, but several other developers have shown an interest in revamping the Owings Mills Mall. What would you like to see there?
The Owings Mills Mall is 55 percent vacant. An eyesore for more than a decade now, the mall was given hope when Kimco announced plans to revamp the mall into an open, pedestrian-friendly retail center with connections to the movie theater and nearby development Metro Centre at Owings Mills. Kimco's future plans are unclear, since Geoff Glazer, Kimco’s vice president of acquisitions and development for the Mid-Atlantic and Northeast regions, previously said Kimco would not redevelop the mall if the Solo Cup plant on Reisterstown Road was rezoned, making way for a Wegmans-anchored center called Foundry Row. That property was rezoned on August 28. Brian Gibbons, CEO of Foundry Row developer Greenberg Gibbons, said his company is interested in…

Various pieces of jewelry were stolen from Zales at the Owings Mills Mall during an armed robbery. It marks the seventh armed robbery since the beginning of August.
Two men, one brandishing a handgun, stole various pieces of jewelry from Zales at the Owings Mills Mall on Wednesday, Sept. 12, at approximately 8:40 p.m. The men entered the store, presented a handgun and told employees they were being robbed.

Readers sounded off after a Patch report pieced together information about developers and the community coalition "Say No To Solo."
In less than four months, the Say No To Solo Coalition has sprung up to lead the opposition against rezoning the Solo Cup plant in Owings Mills from manufacturing to retail.

A poll conducted by Annapolis-based Opinion Works shows that area residents have concerns about the development process, the economy, taxpayer burden and would like Foundry Row stopped or delayed.
A poll funded by developers who are opposed to Foundry Row shows that those surveyed have serious concerns about the development proposed for the Solo Cup plant site and would like to see it stopped or delayed. The Baltimore County Council votes whether to rezone the Solo property on Tuesday, Aug. 28. Those polled on behalf of "the Owings Mills Team" indicated developers have too much power over development decisions, there should be more public review of the project, the mall should be developed first, and the local economy and infrastructure cannot handle the project along with other Owings Mills developments. “A total of 62 percent said they oppose the project or think it should be delayed, 21 percent preferred that Foundry Row not be …

The Baltimore County Councilman said the signatures dropped off at his office show a need for a more “community-driven process.”
Baltimore County Councilman Ken Oliver said the 7,100 signatures he received from residents calling for additional review of proposed development Foundry Row show a need for more public process. “From the boxes of petitions that were delivered to my office and the offices of my council colleagues this week, to the huge turnout or residents at this month’s council meeting, it is clear that there are significant community concerns about permitting a new 400,000 square foot retail mall along Reisterstown Road,” Oliver said in a press release. Say No To Solo Coalition officials dropped off seven boxes – one for each council member – containing 7,100 signatures of Baltimore County residents who are opposed to Foundry Row, the Wegmans-anchored …
