Earliest trust filing in the sample 2003-09-17 (a sample date, not the issuance date); Whether the loan is still in the pool, in special servicing or repaid is in the trust's monthly distribution reports, which are not searchable here.

Summary, model-written

The Gallery at Harborplace was developed by the Rouse Company and operated as a shopping mall and restaurant complex at Baltimore's Inner Harbor. It remained open until it closed in 2022 and has since remained largely vacant.

Why. The record notes the site was closed or demolished and highlights a 6.1% county population shrinkage between 2018 and 2023, indicating market weakness as a likely cause.

Where it stands. As of 2022 the Gallery at Harborplace remains closed and largely vacant, with ownership or controlling entity not specified in the record.

For a planner
