Built by Baltimore-based Prime Retail and was formerly named Prime Outlets-Hagerstown, the outlet center opened in 1998 with approximately 55 stores. Subsequent additions in 1999 and 2000 brought the total number of stores to between 100 and 115 and over 450,000 square feet (42,000 m2) of retail space. The center was designed with a village-style layout and walking lanes throughout.
Hagerstown Premium Outlets is chiefly anchored by Wolf Furniture & Outlet. Smaller anchor stores exist such as Adidas, Calvin Klein, Coach, Polo Ralph Lauren, and The Children's Place. The center also contains a food court with Auntie Anne's and Dairy Queen.
The outlet mall caters not only to residents in Hagerstown, surrounding Washington County, and neighboring counties in Maryland, West Virginia, Pennsylvania, and Virginia, but also to shoppers from the Washington, D.C., and Baltimore areas, especially on weekends and holidays.[1]
In late August 2010, the center was acquired by Simon Property Group's Premium Outlet sector along with the majority of the Prime Outlet centers and was renamed Hagerstown Premium Outlets in September 2010.[2]
