Harborplace is a festival marketplace on the Inner Harbor in Downtown Baltimore, Maryland composed of three mall structures: Pratt Street Pavilion, Light Street Pavilion, and The Gallery at Harborplace all of which were developed by The Rouse Company and opened in the 1980s. Other adjacent structures include an office tower on 111 S. Calvert Street known as Harborplace Tower, and the Renaissance Baltimore Harborplace Hotel, both adjacent to the Gallery mall, which remains closed as of March 2026.
Having endured serious damage along with the entire Baltimore Inner Harbor from Hurricane Isabel (2003), decade-long mismanagement (1990–2016), multiple ownership changes (2004–2022), security concerns from crime in the surrounding area (1997–2025), and massive pressures from the COVID-19 pandemic (2020), Harborplace's viability as a retail center suffered irrevocably. The facility is scheduled for demolition and redevelopment, to begin in the fall of 2026.
