Owings Mills is home to approximately a dozen major shopping centers and numerous office buildings. In the center of Owings Mills was Owings Mills Mall, an enclosed shopping mall. The mall, which opened in 1986, once featured more than 150 stores. The mall closed in 2015, and was completely demolished in March 2017. The former mall has since been redeveloped into Mill Station, which is a 620,000 sq ft retail devolpment. The first retailer to open its doors in the new Mill Station was Costco, who hosted their ribbon cutting ceremony in October 2018. It is also within walking distance to the Metro Centre, which holds the northern most stop on the Baltimore Metro, along with restaurants and shopping. Many nationally known organizations and businesses call Owings Mills home, including CareFirst, T. Rowe Price, Lion Brothers, The Baltimore Life Companies, Talbot Settlement & Escrow, Black & Decker, the Baltimore Ravens headquarters facility, and Maryland Public Television studios (formerly the Maryland Center for Public Broadcasting). A large manufacturing complex dates to 1926 as the site of Maryland Baking Company, and then starting in 1957 housed Maryland Cup (see Sweetheart Cup Company), the Fort Howard Paper Corporation (see Georgia Pacific), and finally the Solo Cup Company, which closed the plant in 2011. In 2015, the property started redevelopment into a shopping complex, Foundry Row. The first store to open in Foundry Row was Wegmans, which launched in September 2016. The Irvine Nature Center moved to a property here, in the Caves Valley Historic District, in 2008. The abandoned Rosewood Center, a former asylum for people with mental disabilities, is in Owings Mills. It was shut down in 2010 due to numerous issues, including lead and asbestos contamination, and lack of equipment inventory. It was used as a training location for the Maryland state police until 2013, when a police officer in training was shot and killed on the location during training. Stevenson University acquired Rosewood in 2017 and finalized an agreement with the State of Maryland in September 2020 for the redevelopment of the site for their addition to the campus, to be known as Owings Mills East. The development is expected to take 18 months, and as of December 2020 has been continuing as scheduled despite the COVID 19 pandemic.
