What Happened to Landmark Mall? ABANDONED?
Located just outside of Washington DC sat one of the capital city's many Modern Ruins. Landmark Mall was once a titan in the region winning head-to-head matchups in consumer preferences over its many nearby rivals. With 100s of stores and 1 million square feet of enclosed real estate the mall was no small place at all and was the largest structure ever built in Alexandria when originially constructed.
Landmark was unique in that it was an outdoor shopping center until 1990, when it was fully enclosed. By that time though, peak mall days had already gone by and for the next 3 decades it suffered the decline and liminal state plaguing malls across the country.
With multiple owners and several attempts at redevelopment, global events and circumstances directly impacted officials ability to do anything with what became the area's number one eyesore and dead mall, with rivals like Springfield and Landover mall also struggling. Springfield Mall being the first place (King) Prince Charles and Princess Diana visited in the United States after getting married.
Finally, in 2020, the city of Alexandria, Inova health system, the Howard Hughes Corporation, Seritage Growth Properties (Sears) and Foulger-Pratt announced that redevelopment of the abandoned mall was imminent. Join me today as we learn the history and what happened to Landmark Mall.
