The property, which formerly operated as Westfield Annapolis, houses 200 shops and restaurants and is listed as the second-largest mall in the state, trailing only the 1.9 million-square-foot Arundel Mills mall in Hanover. Terms of the deal were not disclosed, but the seller and former operator, Paris-based mall giant Unibail-Rodamco-Westfield (URW), listed in its first-half 2024 earnings results that the company sold Annapolis Mall for $160 million.
