BALTIMORE, MD โ€” Itโ€™s been a longtime shopping destination in Baltimore but now there are questions about the future of the Gallery mall at the Inner Harbor. WJZ has learned that some business owners at the mall are preparing to pack up their stores because they have been told there is a possibility the mall may close by the end of the year.

โ€œRight now we donโ€™t know whatโ€™s going on,โ€ said Luis Medina, the owner of La Mesa. โ€œThey told us in July that the last day would be in September and they contacted me again and said now itโ€™s going to be December. So we donโ€™t know whatโ€™s going on, what they are trying to do.โ€
