Westview Mall was an indoor mall located in Catonsville, Maryland. The mall originally opened in 1958 as an outdoor strip mall, but was later converted into an indoor shopping center.[1][2] The original anchors were Hutzler's and Stewart's although Stewart's became Caldor in 1983. In 2002, the mall returned to its original outdoor status, when the indoor section, which had largely failed, was converted into some big box stores, including Lowe's and Sam's Club.
