Facing the loss of two anchor stores to an upscale development less than a mile away, the owners of Annapolis Harbour Center have been busy lining up tenants to try to stave off the competition.

ive been a metro dc resident for over 20 yrs and ive never really seen anyone really do any major shopping at whole foods.most check out lines are empty and most things there are way to exotic for normal everyday use. so i really dont think it will be much of a loss to lose this tenant just as long as the space gets filled. the open air market sounds nice or even a trader joes!
