Two experiential businesses are opening at the recently sold Annapolis mall. The new owners hope to “densify” the center with “mixed uses.”
ANNAPOLIS, MD — The new owners of the Westfield Annapolis mall confirmed their purchase Tuesday and announced two new experience-based businesses coming to the changing retail center.
The owners said DICK’S House of Sport and Dave & Buster’s are both expected to open “in the winter of 2025.”
DICK’S House of Sport is a new “experiential retail concept” from DICK’S Sporting Goods. It will sell products and have a climbing wall, multiple golf bays with TrackManTM simulators and HitTraxTM multi-sport cages.
Dave & Buster’s is a full-service restaurant with a video arcade and a multi-screen sports bar.
The mall’s new ownership did not disclose the sale price, but an earnings report from former owners Unibail-Rodamco-Westfield said the total acquisition cost was $160 million. The sale closed on July 7 with a nonrefundable deposit of $10 million, the URW report said.
I applaud their efforts, but the age of the mall concept is dead.
Wake up people Wes Moore is about to raise taxes on all kinds of purchases nail salons, cans of paint, dmv fees and the list goes on.This is what the democrats do to us. People that vote democrat I don’t want to hear your whining ass. Democrat politicians want money in their pockets not ours.
