    I don't think I would quite call this place a mall but it's definitely a shopping center…read more There's several businesses in here including but not limited to: the UPS Store, CAVA, IHOP, Dessert Junkie, Popeyes Charlie's Philly Steaks, a liquor store, Pizza Hut, Subway, Ross, TJ Maxx, Uptown Cheapskate, Starbucks, Giant, ZIPS, a nail shop, and America's Best Wings. I missed some. Parking here isn't the best. The spaces are small and it's always busy!

    I've been in Bowie for over 40 years and watched Freestate changed slowly. As a kid, I could walk…read moreto this mall. This place is no longer a mall. It was a while back. I forget the anchor store name, Arlens or something. Then it was replaced by Giants (not the grocery store) and then Sears. A bowling alley was in the back but attached to the mall with a number of small shops that come and gone. Gone are the barber shops. Gone is Sunny's, a gift shop (I use to work there), gone is the Sports shop. Today, the mall has be completely replaced and turned into a rather large strip mall. Giant's, the grocery store is the biggest store there. It is rather nice. A smaller strip mall was built in the front with a number of small shops. The shopping center was made for Bowie residence since out of towners would not need to drive here since nothing out of the ordinary can be found here. Parking like most Bowie shopping centers must have been designed by the same idiot. Only a couple of funnel entrances with stop signs placed in the strategically wrong places. Plenty of parking in the main center area and none for the little strip mall in the front.

    Wow! This is one of the largest outdoor shopping centers I've been to besides an outlet mall. There…read moreis such a variety of shopping and dining options. There is a Barnes and Noble as an anchor store. The one by me is long gone. The Best Buy here is now vacant. They have many good food options. We were here for the Savor Bowie event. Seemed like 100+ vendors were lining the Main Street. Still, lots of of free parking option available in the back lots. Stores don't open until noon on Sundays from what I noticed. Many restaurants didn't have breakfast options except First Watch, of course.

    You can tell that this place came into existence during the outdoor mixed used retail craze of the…read moreearly 2000s. You can find one of these in just about any neighborhood or city. They all look like cookie cutter examples from the original. The only difference, the stores held within. This location does seem to be fairing well when compared to other locations. Obviously not as good as outlet malls, but still holding its own. I was surprised by the amount of stores, but the lack of foot traffic. I came on a Sunday and there was hardly anyone here. Those that were coming were running into a single store and heading out. It doesn't seem that far fetched to have an area like this be busy. But I think that most people are straying away from shopping centers like this. The mix of stores didn't really compliment one another and if you wanted to go to other stores in the center you have to go away from the town center portion. I am sure that when it is warmer this is a more vibrant place, but places like this aren't that magically in the colder months.
