Mall in Columbia Was a Gathering Place for Young, Old

The late James W. Rouses vision for Columbia was for a safe, opencommunity devoid of the racial, social and economic problems that plaguedso many other places. The Mall in Columbia has for decades been at theheart of that community its downtown.

On Saturday morning, as people filled the mall to shop, to eat, to getout of the cold their gathering place became a crime scene when a manwith a shotgun killed a man and a woman before shooting himself.

The mall has traditionally been Columbias downtown, said Howard CountyCouncilwoman Mary Kay Sigaty (West Columbia), who lives less than a milefrom the shopping center and often meets friends there to walk. Our mallis central to many lives in Columbia.

Added Phillip Nelson, president of the Columbia Association: Its agathering point.

Columbia, one of the nations first planned communities where people couldlive, work, play and be entertained first housed residents in 1967. Themall opened just four years later.

In the mornings, there are moms with strollers stretching their legs asthey walk their young children around the mall. Columbias older residentssip coffee at Starbucks or Panera, where they are likely to run into a fewcounty police officers grabbing caffeine before their shifts. The mallalso is a place for teenagers to socialize; many of them get their firstjob folding clothes at one of its many shops or waiting tables at itsrestaurants.


.

The mall is simply part of the daily routine.

.

Thats by design. Rouse started what became Columbia, about 25 milesnortheast of Washington, with 14,000 acres of farmland, much of it aformer dairy farm, then designed and built a series of villages. Each hadits own small shopping area. But there was no central downtown, no MainStreet where everyone would gather, so the mall became that spot.
