Question: This 800,000 sqft Chinese-themed mall to be built will connect to a mall that first opened its doors for business in what year?

Landover Mall was a large shopping mall located in Landover, Maryland, directly across from FedExField, off MD 202 and Interstates 95 and 495.  The mall was built by Sonny Abramson and Ted Lerner of Lerner Enterprises, and opened in 1972.  Like its neighbor Capital Plaza Mall, it was a major attraction through its opening years in Prince George's County.  The mall featured many anchors and smaller tenants; however, upon the decline and closing of its major anchors, the mall itself entered a state of decline.  Also, the fact that the location of Landover Mall is a very high crime area was a contributing factor to the decline and eventual closure.  Finally, in 2002, the mall's doors were closed and it ultimately was demolished in 2006.  Sears remained open because it owned the land beneath the store.  Sears later sold the land underneath its store to Lerner.  In January 2014 Sears announced that it would close in March. <SEP>  It will be connected to Pacific Mall by an indoor walkway.  Market Village is scheduled for demolition and construction of the new mall was to have begun in the third quarter of 2013, but as of early 2017, Market Village remains in operation with no signs of closure, but some long term tenants have left including McDonald's in late 2015.
