Reisterstown Road Plaza

According to Datex Property Solutions’ latest report, grocery, fast food, beauty, and sporting goods are among the strongest retail segments—perfectly aligning with the mix of stores at Reisterstown Road Plaza. As more people return to in-person work, weekday foot traffic and spending may rise, further supporting retail growth. While rising occupancy costs and inflation present challenges, demand for health, beauty, grocery, and fitness-focused tenants remains strong. Good news for the The Plaza – we have a great mix of retail, fitness and office tenants and are ahead of the latest trends! https://lnkd.in/gvkTCKrw

We’re excited to highlight one of our key development partners at The Plaza — Chesapeake Contracting Group — who will be leading the entrance and façade renovations, along with additional upgrades aimed at attracting new tenants. Since their founding in 1979, CCG has been a trailblazer in transforming construction safety. Their safety approach to retail renovations includes clear wayfinding and barriers, maintaining a clean job site, and minimizing disruptions. With deep roots in Baltimore County, Chesapeake’s long-standing commitment to enhancing the area’s appeal to new tenants and shoppers is reinforced through this project, all while preserving its historic presence. We look forward to continuing this partnership as we reimagine The Plaza!

It’s inspiring to work with so many fantastic people in our community that are making a real difference in Northwest Baltimore.
